Breed an army of beetles, feed and raise them, then send them into battle!
Beetle Uprising is a combination of real-time tactics gameplay, breeding simulation, and home building. Your mission: conquer the abandoned lot and smite all who stand in your way! Featuring a complex genetics system based on real-world science, your army of beetles can be interbred to bring out the best traits for combat, aesthetics and survivability.
Key features
- Beetle breeding is built upon a complex genetics simulation, placing the most immense beetle possibilities behind tactical biological decisions.
- Look after your beetles as if they were your pets. They need food, shelter, company, toys to play with, and cleanliness: every beetle appreciates a well-kept nest.
- Play through 16 unique real-time-tactics (RTT) style campaign missions with your personal beetle army.
- Send beetles on dozens of additional solo-missions to gather resources for the home nest.
From the relative safety of your nest, you will breed generations of beetles that will fan out over the treacherous abandoned lot to conquer territory and unearth its riches. Unlock the secrets of your genetic potential through careful pairings of select members of your swarm. Learn new abilities and enhance the performance of your species over generations of offspring. Biting is a dependable attack that no beetle should underestimate, but what if you could spit caustic bile? drain your enemies' vital fluids? or perhaps explode in a wondrous shower of carapace flavored shrapnel! This and more are only a few choice alleles away... should you discover them.
But your domination isn't all biting and slashing. You must rear your beetles and tend to their needs of food, comfort and health. As you conquer new territories, you will retrieve the necessary resources like seeds, berries, and that most prized of delicacies: rotting meat. Send out your beetles to explore new areas, learn of their defenses and treasures. If your chosen champions are up for the task, they may well find rare items to aid the swarm in its rise to power. Perhaps they’ll retrieve a soothing bar of soap, a rubber ball, or even some nutritious brains! Nothing tickles the ganglia like comfort foods.
New beetles joining your ranks will inject fresh DNA into the gene pool. Not only will they unlock new abilities and enhance their foraging and fighting traits, crossbreeding will also reveal rare beetle aesthetics like horns, spikes, ridges, colors, textures and metallic finishes! Each beetle you raise will be uniquely yours, a master of statistics, looks, and stature.
Taking over each territory will require specialized abilities and tactical decision-making as you lead your swarm into battle. Feel the fluid joy of your horde in battle. You don’t push individuals about like puppets, you usher them about as a maestro would lead a symphony building up to a crescendo and crashing them upon your enemies like a tidal wave of destruction.

I was expecting a lot more from this game, but I barely got to experience it. What I did experience, I did not like. I have requested a refund, we shall see what happens.
To start off with, when I first went to make a new game I couldn't, I had to delete one of five games that were already saved in all of the game slots, none of which I made or played. When that was done I made it through a terribly uninformative tutorial into a tiny cave with no further instructions. Placing down some items, I crashed.
I started once again, reloading the game I had just made in slot one, and all of the items already placed for me were missing, all of the items I had placed were missing, and all of the items I had in my inventory were gone. So, I made a new game in slot 2 after deleting another weird pre-existing game.
This time I made it to the beetle breeding part. I created one offspring from my originals with good traits, and another offspring from the same originals with good traits. I then waited for them to grow up to breed these two new ones together, to get even better, increased stats. I hit the breed button, and nothing happened. The nine slots for the new offspring to choose from were just empty. I tried clicking everything and everywhere I could, but I couldn't get anything to happen, and I couldn't even exit. I had to Ctrl+Alt+Del out.
So I tried for a third time, making a third game. This time was just breeding my two starting beetles and attempting to play the first mission before I crashed. I got wiped out almost instantly as soon as I left the cave. Alright, yeah, I get that the game is about breeding the beetles to make better ones, but when I literally can't do that, how am I supposed to play? Also really, on the first mission? How many times do you need to breed the beetles and how high of stats do you need to beat the first first mission?
So yeah, I would not recommend this game to anyone. From what I have seen and experienced it is just an absolute mess. Hopefully my refund goes through, this was just an awful experience.
It's decent, a nice time waster. BUT it gets old quick. There isn't enough to do or enough randomization. I like games like this so I would rate it like... 6.5/10 or 7ish. I like breeding the bugs, I like attacking enemies, and I like the little cave. I would love to see a mode where you just breed and sell bugs WITH an option to battle them ;)
The gameplay for this is solid and very nostalgic. It's fun trying to mutate your beetles to be the best they can be. The UI is a bit rough but if you can get past that the game is a good time for anyone that wants a break from shooting or slashing.
If you want something more strategic (like Dungeon Keeper) try "Empires of the Undergrowth" also published by Slug Disco.
it a good game
bought this out of comedic curiosity but its actually a really fun little game. fights are not tactical at all but overall a fun little game
I just got out of doing empires of the undergrowth, came to this game, expecting some strategy and manipulating DNA to make the strongest beetles in an RTS game.
I was very saddly mistaken, as this isn't any of that, it's a daycare game of taking care of a terrarium of beetles, where you must go out and hunt for items to take care of their needs. I'm very very confused.
