I've beaten the game several times and haven't found it that difficult. Also, I think the powerfoods are quite useful but I do like the idea of controlling 2 Biggs' at once! Oh, and it's only $0.99 in the App Store now!! @Easy Writer

I basically hit the wall at level 15 because of this, so I wonder about the long-term playability of this game. This doesn't have to be the only way for the game to progress. It would greatly add to the depth of the game if, for example, you could power-up your character to move faster or hold two bugs at once. Instead, all of the "power-ups" I've found either just burst bugs or temporarily move their onslaught back a step. I also experienced a fair amount of crashing back to the home screen with this game for no apparent reason, though usually it would occur at the end of a level and after the game had auto-saved. It also seems that it's impossible So, in the end, if this game gets a nice update that addresses the pacing and flow and adds some depth it would earn its $10 price tag. As it is, I'd put it in the $3-5 category.
