'''Band of Bugs''' is a turn-based strategy game for the [[Xbox Live Arcade]], and is the third game released by [[NinjaBee]] for the platform. The game includes leaderboards, a level editor and support for the Xbox Live Vision Camera. It is often described as being similar to games like {{c|Fire Emblem}} and {{c|Final Fantasy Tactics}}, though is more simplistic than both. In the game, the player and their opponent both control their own party of bugs. Each bug species doubles as a character class. Unlike most strategy games, however, the party doesn't level up or gain experience from what they do through the game; skills and levels are pre-determined based on the scenario or mission. This provides a more accessible game experience, and fits with the casual gamer theme of Live Arcade games while still allowing more depth for strategy veterans.
