Bug Evolution [🕷️]
01
Getting started as a tiny spider
Step
In short
Eating food as soon as you spawn is the fastest way to get big enough to evolve.
You begin every session hatching as a small spider. The world around you is scattered with food, and picking it up is what makes your body grow.
- Find food nearby look around your spawn point for items on the ground and collect them right away.
- Eat consistently your body grows each time you eat, so keep moving and picking up everything you can.
- Open the Bug Tree once you have eaten a bit, check the Bug Tree to see which insects you can evolve into next.

02
How the Bug Tree works
TipsIn short
Knowing your next evolution target before you start eating saves a lot of time.
The Bug Tree shows every insect and spider you can become, and it lays out exactly what you need to get there.
Tips worth knowing
- Open the Bug Tree to see all the paths branching out from your current bug.
- Each evolution requires you to reach a certain size, so check the amount of food you still need before you commit to a path.
- The top of the tree holds giant prehistoric beasts — that is the endpoint to aim for if you want to be the strongest on the server.

Teaming up with friends
Check
Up to 15 players can share one server, and you can form a team with friends inside it. Hunting together gives your group a real edge against larger bugs and other players.
- Make sure your friends join the same server before you start forming a team.
- Group up before going after big targets solo hunting works, but bigger prey is much easier with backup.
- Remember the server cap is 15 players, so plan your group size accordingly.
05
Becoming King of the server
Summary
In short
Reaching the top evolution and winning fights consistently is what puts you at the top of the server.
The server's strongest bug earns the title of King. Getting there means pushing your evolution as far up the Bug Tree as possible and beating other players in combat. You can chase this goal solo or with a team.
- Highest evolution aim for the giant prehistoric beasts at the top of the Bug Tree.
- Constant eating keep collecting food so your size never drops behind other players.
- Combat wins defeat larger and stronger bugs to climb the server rankings.
- Hourly boss a Giant Void Mosquito boss spawns every hour, giving you a major combat challenge and a chance to prove your strength.
