Getting started
Step
Once you have a handful of catches, sell them to earn cash. That first sale gets you going and unlocks the First Sale badge.
- Catch your first bug this earns the First Catch! badge and gets the collection started.
- Sell a bug turn that early catch into cash so you have something to spend on gear.
What to do with caught bugs
Tips
Every bug you catch can go one of two ways: sell it immediately for cash, or place it in an enclosure where it generates money even while you are offline. Common bugs are best sold so you always have cash to spend. Rare bugs, mutations, and anything at Celestial or Supreme rarity are worth keeping in an enclosure, since they pay out continuously without you having to do anything.
- Sell common bugs right away to keep cash flowing for upgrades.
- Store rare and mutated bugs in an enclosure for passive offline income.
- Catching a Celestial-rarity bug earns the Celestial badge; catching a Supreme earns the SUPREME badge.
Gear upgrades and why they matter
Summary
Your net and other equipment can be upgraded with the cash you earn from selling bugs. Better gear lets you catch bigger and rarer bugs, and it opens up areas of the world that you cannot reach with starter equipment.
- Rarer bugs unlocked stronger gear gives you a shot at Celestial and Supreme rarity catches.
- New areas opened upgraded equipment is what lets you explore locations you cannot enter yet.

Common questions
FAQShould I sell every bug I catch?
Not every bug. Common bugs are worth selling straight away for cash. Rare bugs and mutations are better placed in your enclosure, where they keep earning you money offline instead of giving you a one-time payout.
Does the game earn me anything when I am not playing?
Yes, as long as you have bugs stored in your enclosure. Those bugs produce cash automatically over time.
What are Celestial and Supreme bugs?
They are high-rarity bugs in the game. Catching one of each earns you a badge — Celestial for a Celestial-rarity bug and SUPREME for a Supreme-rarity bug.
