IGN review
6.2 out of 10
Generally positive, but they don't like the gameplay based on what else is out there in the genre.

Again, basically saying it's a bit too simplistic, and they don't like the glitches.

Xbox360Fanboy impressions.
"At the end of the day, Band of Bugs is more or less exactly what it's supposed to be: a quick turn-based strategy game that you can either play in 30 minute bursts, or for hours at a time. Naturally, the final question concerning an XBLA game is whether or not it's worth the price -- in this case 800 points. Given the single player and multiplayer options, and the potential longevity created by the level editor, we're inclined to say yes."

A quick excerpt from our local free games paper "Definately one of the finer choices on Xbox Live, and by far the most refreshing."
...And Maxim "4.5 out of 5. Finally, a game where you're allowed to play with your worm."

Does anyone happen to know which issue of Maxim reviewed Band of Bugs? I can't find it online.
