Dicebreaker: Bug board game Insectarium could do for insects, what Wingspan did for birds

A new board game featuring a bug-based theme could do for insects what Wingspan did for birds.

Insectarium is an upcoming board game that sees players creating their own board of insect species to display within the display hall of the grand Insectarium, or a zoo that features a collection of insects. Similarly to 2019’s Wingspan, Insectarium features various illustrations of the natural world - in this case, of specimens that players have gathered during their bug-hunts - created by artist Meg Lemieur, who has previously illustrated for Defenders of the Wild and Corvids.

To create their insect displays, players will gather and utilise their gear, as well as collect the tools they need to arrange and pin the specimens they collect onto their displays. On a player’s turn, they must choose a card and a token from the shared pool, before selecting an insect specimen to pin to their board. Players can use their gear tokens to activate certain abilities that will help them with their displays.
