Picked this up during FF's Holiday Sale. I was skeptical, but this is a very fun game. It is a dexterity game similar to Tiddlywinks, but you get to shoot your different bugs around the board and some of them have special abilities. It's a lot of fun, but it is definitely a dexterity game.
I own the original X-bugs version of this game and it is a blast. If you like dexterity games with a fair amount of strategy (unique piece abilities, etc.) take the plunge.
I too join the chorus singing the praises of Micro Mutants: Evolution. It's just fun! It's our 11-yr old's favorite game. No beer in hand for her though, [1].
A Much maligned dexterity game. A lot of fun, especially with an ice cold beer in your hand.
Much maligned or not:

Do wish Tanga could get their paws on some copies of Kingbrick.
Find it somewhat like paper football and Subbuteo.
