A short, but very fun creature collecting game that is always surprising you with how funny the bugs are.
Different tools will become accessible to aid you in catching the creatures, and there are in fact bosses. I don't quite remember how many Bugsnax there are in total, but it's enough to keep you on a quest to find each one.
Aside from the collection challenge, you just HAVE TO know what kind of abominations you can build by feeding your Wumpus friends different kinds of ungodly foods that change their appearance limb by limb.
Don't get me wrong, the plot is a weird one and just saying that line above is odd, but just trust me, bro. It'll be hard to explain without spoiling, but what you see in the art style is simply just a sweet candy coating; once you dive deeper into this game you will soon realize that it's dripping with thought-provoking existentialism that gets amplified by your relationship with your neighbors, as well as their interpersonal relationships with each other. THIS GAME HAS GOT SOME DRAAAAAMAAAA before you even show up, and it's up to you if you want to help them figure that out or not.
There was also a free update about 2 years after the release of this game that added much more to explore and many more Bugsnax, but only further develops about half the cast. It seems to me though that it's setting up for more Bugsnax on the horizon and you will see me on the frontlines, Captain. God bless, Bugsnax.
Edit: Used to be a 4.5 star rating, but I stopped doing halfsies.
