I don’t exactly hate bugs, I just don’t like having them in my home. Unless they’re a pet. No really, we used to own a giant millipede. His name was Oscar. Anyway, if one does get in, I generally try to usher it back outside by way of a glass and a piece of paper, but sometimes I have no choice but to squash ‘em. For anyone who isn’t a weirdo bug-lover like me, there’s Dirty Bugs, a cartoony bug-punching game by Foggy Studio.

The game itself is a simple one, not unlike some of the most successful App Store titles: swipe all over the screen to swat down bugs, but make sure not to let any get by and don’t hit the bombs. Swatting down insects will cause them to go from happy little bugs with bright, smiling faces to bugs that look like they just went ten rounds with a heavyweight boxer. It’s a cute touch.

At the moment there’s only one “farm,” but there’s the promise of more (farms, bugs, etc.) in the future. Those interested in smacking some creepy-crawlies can check out Dirty Bugs right now for free.
