This has never been given away before.

Beetle Bug (formerly called Beetle Ju)

In Brief

If you are familiar with and enjoyed playing digger and boulderdash games, Beetle Bug should appeal as it has the same game mechanics.

I was hoping to post a review at some point today, but I've been asleep since early this morning until now (15.20pm). Needed a well earned rest after the last weeks shenanigans; in the mean time you can read several short community reviews of this game HERE; however, please bear in mind the price of arcade games back in 2003 when this was originally released via Alawar were much higher than they are now. Also, the name used to be called Beetle Ju, with the sequels called Beetle Bug 2 and 3. The game originally cost £19.99 back in 2003 (06/15/2003). Alawar used to release games like this, then release extra level packs, for example I purchased a game called Hyperballoid, (a break out game), which I loved. The original game cost me $19.99. They released around 18 level packs over a couple of years, each one containing an extra 50 levels and each level pack cost $14,99, so in total I paid almost $300 for the game as it also included an extra music pack. About 6 months after the last level pack was released, Alawar released the game to other sites such as Big Fish and Reflexive Arcade, but all the level packs were included with the game, all for $19.99. The same happened with Beetle Ju/Bug, several level packs were released after the original game was released, increasing the overall price significantly. Thankfully we get it free. Yeah!

The latest game from Epic Games changes is Season 2 of 3 out of 10 - (Caffeinated super-powers, sentient AIs, and rival game studios all stand in the way of Shovelworks studios as they struggle to finally make a game that scores better than “3 out of 10”. Will this be the Season that they finally do it?), with three more games to be added this week; i.e. Deponia: The Complete Journey, Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth and The First Tree.
