Cheepoof

## 06:00 - 16:00

Cheepoof is a Bugsnak resembling a lepidopteran (a butterfly or moth), with an orange cheese puff for a body, and orange Dorito-like chips for wings. It appears during the day in Scorched Gorge, and can also be found in Sizzlin' Sands upon breaking a Preying Picantis, and in Frosted Peak by thawing the Picantis stuck in ice.

## Strategy

Cheepoof flies around a small area. It can be captured by launching a Snak Trap at it using the Lunchpad, or by tripping it up with the Trip Shot.

* White Cheepoof
* Flamin' Cheepoof
* Preying Picantis.

## Trivia

* Cromdo's quote refers to the infamous orange cheese dust that cheese snacks are often coated in, as well as the disease Black Lung, caused when miners inhale too much coal dust.
* Cheepoof can be found in the most locations of any Bugsnak. It appears on its own in Scorched Gorge, appears when breaking a Preying Picantis in Sizzlin' Sands, and appears when breaking the frozen Picantis in Frosted Peak.

Scorched Gorge

## Soundtrack

**Scorched Gorge** (Desert Inner) is an area on Snaktooth Island that becomes accessible after completing the "Small Celebration!" main quest.

It is a canyon like area which once was inhabited by an ancient settlement, with structures that seem like houses and enclosed areas for the dead. The walls show paintings of Mothza Supreme, which was presumably worshipped. Other remnants of this civilization are pieces of pottery, and most notable, the skeletons of the ancient Grumpuses themselves. Triffany Lottablog considers it her archeological site for research, and has set up camp there after the events of the fight.

On top of the canyon, accessible by a wooden structure and stone carved stairs, are bridges and windmills. They are supposedly build by the current settlement of Lizbert's expedition team, as such wood structure would not have lasted for millennia. Cromdo Face has decided to set up his camp and Cromdo Mart on top of the canyon, without any wares to sell or any hope for customers until The Journalist shows up. He has claimed ownership over the bridge that connects the area to the Sizzlin' Sands, which he tries to sell, a launchpad stolen from Snorpy, which he tries to sell, and he refers to the windmills as "his" as well. In Spuddy's commentary, he states being in top of the canyon in fear of the Bugsnax aggression.

The desert area's alternative weather condition is a sandstorm.

Broken Tooth

**DLC related content**

## Soundtrack

**Broken Tooth** (Jungle) is a smaller island off the coast of Snaktooth Island, home to a jungle, ancient temples, and unique, gigantic Bugsnax. It can be accessed after completing the questlines of Snorpy, Chandlo, Triffany, Floofty, and Shelda.

## Description

Broken Tooth is a jungle, a rainforest, and as such has frequent rain.

Tropical Rainforest plants such as the Monstera and the Rafflesia are present on the island.

The island has a large diversity in sauces to accompany its biodiversity. With the exception of Ranch Dressing, all sauces are present on the island but mostly come in a singular patch.

* The Ketchup patch is near the Bunger Royale underneath Camp.
* The Cheese patch is in the Jungle area where a Millimochi and Spaghider roam.
* The Peanut Butter patch is on a platform near the Cellystix.
* The Chocolate patch is in front of the temple entrance, on top of a rock near a Millimochi.
* There are two Hot Sauce patches present; one on a ledge between the waterfalls where the trampoline-carrying Clawsteronis reside, and one near the Bunger Royale and Chocolant duo on the upper level.

In the middle of the island sits a great crater where a shallow lake has formed. It has a few pillars and in its midst a egg-cracking statue.

## References & Notes

1. ↑ Rafflesia Arnoldii, nicknamed the 'Corpse Flower' (as is the name referred to the plant in the files), is well known for emitting a pungent smell that mimics the odor of a decaying corpse. It does so to attract certain flies to spread its seeds. Broken Tooth does not have fly-based Bugsnax however. The Rafflesia is a national flower of Indonesia and its inclusion is likely only going for the rainforest/tropical jungle theme the biome bases itself off, over what could be a 'visual pun' on the island's implied rich soil of corpses.
2. ↑ The Polish version has all other locations translated.
Noodler

Noodler is a spider crab-like Bugsnak resembling a bowl of noodles with chopsticks for legs. It is found in Boiling Bay.

## Strategy

Noodlers inhabit the lava pool within Boiling Bay's volcanic cave. It can be caught with the Bug Net after dousing its flame. This can be done by luring it out of the lava with sauces, where a Paletoss or Paletoss Grande can extinguish it on contact. It can also be extinguished by luring a La Sodieux into the cave.

Like other crab-based Bugsnax, Noodler is curious and playful, and will pick up and toss around things it encounters, be they the Buggy Ball or other Bugsnax.

Snaxburg Isn't Safe

Filbo is at it again. He seems to want to talk to me about something.

 **Objectives:** Filbo wants to talk to you!

## Soundtrack

Bugsnax OST - Ghost Stories

**Snaxburg Isn't Safe**, also referred to as **The Intruder**, is the third event of the main quest. It becomes available after getting Cromdo, Chandlo and Snorpy back to Snaxburg.

Break Time!
Filbo tells The Journalist that they have been working hard and should consider their own well-being as well. As such, Filbo suggests to go rest in Snaxburg for a while. Relaxing in Lizbert and Eggabell's hut abruptly comes to an end with a scream of Beffica and Filbo standing in the door entrance that they better check it out.

The Intruder!
Everyone is gathered at-and facing the town entrance. When the Journalist joins them, Filbo asks what took place.
A frightened Beffica and Gramble speak of a Grumpus-like creature entering town and falling apart in scattering Bugsnax. Tension runs high as Snorpy and Wiggle are concerned with their own theories, Cromdo accuses Beffica of lying for drama and Wambus blames Gramble's lack of sleep in him hallucinating which has them get physical with each other and are seperated by Chandlo.

Filbo requests the Journalist to check out the Outhouse and look around for more evidence to confirm what the pair had seen.

## Break Time! / The Intruder! (part 1)

 Filbo is at it again. He seems to want to talk to me about something.

 **Objectives:** Filbo wants to talk to you!

After the Journalist agrees to take a break upon Filbo's advice, it is cut short with the screaming of Beffica. Filbo comes to tell you to come join him to 'check it out'. The whole town is gathered at the town entrance.

## The Intruder! part 2

 Beffica and Gramble claim they saw a monster, If that's true, I should be able to find evidence of its presence.

 **Objectives:**
* Scan the area for clues. (6/6)
* Talk to Filbo.

The Journalist is required to find evidence of cryptid activity to figure out what Beffica and Gramble had seen. They need to scan their findings with the SnaxScope.

* Approaching the Outhouse they find tracks that change from Grumpus' paws to something different.
* At the back of the 'Snaxburg' welcome sign it states "No More Bugsnax".

## References & Notes

1. ↑ The Journalist, avid hunter of cryptids, would not refer to a cryptid as such, as is pointed out by Triffany in part 3 where she calls the term prejudicial.
Caramel Poptick

Caramel Poptick is a jumpy Bugsnak resembling a popped corn kernel, covered in caramel. It is found in Flavor Falls, but only while it is raining.

## Strategy

When it rains in Flavor Falls, Caramel Popticks can be found bouncing around in the cave with the stone Grumpus face. They are pre-puffed, and as such can be caught instantly in a Snak Trap. When a trap is placed, the player will simply have to wait for a Caramel Poptick to jump in its range.

Most of the difficulty in catching Caramel Poptick comes from the rarity of rain. Since it is raining when the player first arrives in Snaxburg, it is recommended to immediately run back to Flavor Falls to catch Caramel Poptick.

## References & Notes

* Caramel Poptick is the only Bugsnak that requires a specific weather condition to appear. If luck is not on the player's side, it can become the most difficult Bugsnak in the game to encounter.
* Even though Caramel Poptick is shown to like chocolate and cheese sauce, it won’t react to it when you use the Sauce Slinger
Wiggle Rocks The Beach

**Wiggle Rocks The Beach** is the main quest for Wiggle Wigglebottom.

Wiggle Wigglebottom

With the return of both **Wiggle Wigglebottom** and Triffany Lottablog back to Snaxburg as the third wave of returns, Snaxburg Gets Spooked follows that eventually opens the possibility for the next trio of Grumpuses to return.

> *"Wiggle seems desperate for creativity and Snax. I can certainly provide the latter."*
>
>

Wiggle and Gramble are both met near the entrance of Simmering Springs on the right side.

Wiggle does not have an **Aftermath** confrontation.

## Wiggle and Gramble

When entering Simmering Springs, The Journalist is confronted with a rather overbearing scientist who leaves off for the Boiling Bay as soon as they're done with you and shuts the door behind them. On the right side side the Journalist runs into a scene playing out with famous popstar, **Wiggle Wigglebottom**, serenading to Gramble Gigglefunny, who Filbo Fiddlepie told them to look for.

Wiggle means well. She just don't understand you like I do.

## Pen Pineapple!

 Wiggle's creativity is still lacking, and she believes eating a Pineantula will help. Now I need to figure out how to get that Snak out of the sand.

 **Objectives:** Turn Wiggle's hair into a Pineantula.

Wiggle requires a Pineantula hairdo and thus the consumption of one. They dig underground and need to be smothered in Chocolate Sauce present at the beach. Crapple will be attracted and pull the Pineantula out of the ground, making it vulnerable to the Snak Trap or Bug Net.

To change Wiggle's hairstyle, point the Snaktivator towards the available point on top of her head.

## Green Day!

 Wiggle wants a Green Grapeskeeto. However, this Snak is very quick, and I may need to slow it down before it can be captured.

 **Objectives:**
* Catch one Green Grapeskeeto. (1/1)
* Feed one Green Grapeskeeto. (1/1)

## Pop Music! / Get Wiggle Back to Snaxburg!

 Wiggle claims that Popticks will finally make her music flow. I will have to trek to the desert to find them.

 **Objectives:**
* Catch two Popticks. (2/2)
* Feed two Popticks. (2/2)

 Wiggle seems desperate for creativity and Snax. I can certainly provide the latter.

 **Objectives:** Convince her to go home.

Tropicabug

Tropicabug is an ant-like Bugsnak resembling a shish kebab, with an onion slice for a head, grilled pineapple for a thorax, and jumbo shrimp for an abdomen. It is found in Simmering Springs.

## Strategy

Tropicabugs are extremely shy, and if they spot the player they will hide in a Hiding Bush and refuse to come out. To get them out of the bush, the Sauce Slinger and Chocolate or Peanut Butter can be used to lure a Crapple into charging at the bush.

Once out in the open, the Tropicabug will run for a different Hiding Bush. To capture them, set up a Snak Trap between the bushes and capture them as they run for the next bush.

Alternatively, the Sauce Slinger can be used to cover the Snak Trap in the hot sauce and then lure the Tropicabug into it.

The Lunchpad can also be used to catch a Tropicabug from afar, before it even sees the player.

Before spotting the player, they will patrol in a small circle near the Hiding Bushes.

Fruity Snakpod

Fruity Snakpod is a bagworm-like Bugsnak resembling a bag of dried fruit. It is found in Boiling Bay.

## Strategy

Five Fruity Snakpods can be found hidden around Boiling Bay. Though some may be difficult to locate, they are very easy to capture when found, and can be captured using the Bug Net, Snakgrappler, or Snak Trap.

Snakpods will not respawn until all five in the area are collected.

Interview The Mysterious Voice!

**DLC related content**

 **Objectives:**

The **Mysterious interview** is an optional interview with The Mysterious Voice, that is not conducted by The Journalist. Instead, it is a collection of tape recordings, found within The Triplicate Space, of an interview conducted by another Journalist whom is not recorded themself. It is not present in the Journal as an Interview Quest task nor does it have "Interview Notes". The entire Triplicate Space event is neither noted down.

The Journalist has access to both the Observation Room or the Pendulum Room and can complete its tasks in either order. The recordings found are loose in content and do not directly follow up on one another.

The recording are "decades old", about 30-40 years judging from the mention of Bronica Lottablog and that the Journalist is implied to have been Clumby Clumbernut.

## References & Notes

1. ↑ The page name follows the structure of the other interviews and is not a canonical reference.
2. ↑ Though the interview fits Interview requirements, it is listed in the text files (Quests: Interview Quests) as **Mysterious interview** (MysteriousInterview.xml) which is similar to fellow DLC content Interview Eggabell pt.2! (EggabellInterview.xml). Additionally, both interviews are optional - not required for the story to be completed - and with Eggabell's second Interview most definitely being an Interview, the definition is granted more liberty.
3. ↑ The Tape order and numbering is merely for page structural purpose and is not a canonical reference.
4. ↑ Tape #4 is most likely to be approached before Tape #3.
5. ↑ 5.0 5.1 This Tape will be available after puzzle completion.

* The "ZONE" bankfiles have a few "number skips" which makes it look files are missing. This is oddly common in the DLC files, often having the first file numbered as 002. There is no clear sign of missing or unimplemented dialog, although these numbers could imply there was a conversation between two characters. The number skips are at 001, 004, 006, 008, 010, 012, 014, 021, 024, 025.
Melty Snakpod

Melty Snakpod is a bagworm-like Bugsnak resembling a bag of candy-coated chocolate pieces. It is found in Frosted Peak.

## Strategy

Five Melty Snakpods can be found hidden around Frosted Peak. Though some may be difficult to locate, they are very easy to capture when found, and can be captured using the Bug Net, Snakgrappler, or Snak Trap.

Snakpods will not respawn until all five in the area are collected.

Flutterjam

## 04:00 - 16:00

Flutterjam is a butterfly-like Bugsnak resembling a slice of bread with a splatter of jelly on it. It is found in Frosted Peak in the daytime.

## Strategy

Flutterjam is rather easy to catch, with most of the difficulty coming from its somewhat rare appearance. It only appears at the top of Frosted Peak during the day, flying high above the ground. If hit with peanut butter from the Sauce Slinger, it will instantly close its wings together and fall to the ground, happy to have become a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It can then be captured with the Bug Net.

Arrivée

L'arrivée est le nom donné à l'événement correspondant à l'arrivée de l'Entity "Inventa" qui amena une cargaison composée de près 5 millions d'êtres de toutes espèces, pour coloniser la galaxie Lurg. Celui-ci est arrivé sur la planète Verre en premier, qui est ensuite devenue la planète d'accueil des Verriens.

L'arrivée est le point de départ du calendrier de Lurg, l'année 0 à partir de laquelle le temps est comptabilisé. Nous sommes actuellement en 1254 après l'Arrivée.

Les xonxibs sont les seuls à être parvenus à Lurg sans utiliser l'Inventa, et sont arrivés pour la plupart en 150 après l'Arrivée, à l'exception de Kh'lyrr qui lui, est arrivé quelques semaines après l'Inventa, et est tout de suite devenu le grand chancelier du Conseil des 7.
Sauce Slinger

The **Sauce Slinger** is a tool the player receives from Wambus during the tutorial to help with luring a stray Bunger into a pen.

It is a slingshot used to launch the various Sauces that can be found around Snaktooth Island. Many Bugsnax have a favorite sauce that can be used as bait, while others may dislike certain sauces and react with hostility. Sauces can be splattered onto any dry surface, or directly onto a Bugsnak, Grumpus, or interactive object.
The Sauce Slinger has a wide variety of uses. If an aggressive Bugsnak sees its favorite sauce coating another Bugsnak, it will attack it, leaving that Snak vulnerable to capture without the use of any other tools. Alternatively, the sauce-hating nature of a Sodie can be taken advantage of by creating a trail of sauce for the Sodie to follow, luring it to a spicy Snak it can extinguish. The true potential of the Sauce Slinger, however, comes from using it together with other tools:

* Sauce can be used to lure a Bugsnak directly into the range of a Snak Trap.
* The Buggy Ball can be coated in sauce, and used as a mobile lure for Bugsnax while requiring only one bottle of sauce.
* The Lunchpad can be coated in sauce to lure Bugsnax on top of it, allowing them to be launched.
* The Trip Shot can be coated in sauce to directly lure Bugsnax into colliding with it.

## Usage

The Sauce Slinger may seem redundant as objects can be thrown simply by paw. The difference is that there will always be a curve trajectory and a lack of speed. The Sauce Slinger has higher projectile speed, 'reload' and a direct straight trajectory aim.
The Sauce Slinger is limited to Sauces as projectiles. Rocks cannot be carried, only physically picked up and one at a time, and thus cannot function as munition.

Despite its speed, it is not able to lock onto anything long enough, which otherwise would allow the aim to be adjusted to the movement, which the Lunchpad can do.

## References & Notes

* The Sauce Slinger is used to attain the "Say Cheese!" achievement, for which a Grumpus must be covered in cheese, and then scanned with the SnaxScope.
* It is called "Slingshot" in the files.
Interview Chandlo!

Time to ask the beefcake questions.

 **Objectives:**
* Why is Chandlo here?
* What caused him to leave?
* Does he know what happened to Lizbert?

## Interview notes

After having conducted the interview, notes are added to the Journal's Grumpedia section regarding the interview and some of the Journalist's own observation.

**Interview notes**

• Compelled by Snaktooth's dangerous reputation.

• Lifelong partner to Snorpy Fizzlebean.

• Befriended Eggabell and became her personal trainer.

• Confident that Lizbert and Eggabell are surviving.
Crystal Sweetiefly

## 04:00 - 16:00

Crystal Sweetiefly is a dragonfly-like Bugsnak made of purple rock candy. It is found in the Scorched Gorge in the daytime.

## Strategy

Crystal Sweetieflies zip around happily, making them hard targets in motion, but after a moment they slow down onto a surface to rest, making them easier to catch. Many of them are high above reach, requiring skillful use of the Snak Trap and Lunchpad.

Sodie D

Sodie D is a shrimp-like Bugsnak resembling an orange soda can with straws for legs. It is found in Sizzlin' Sands.

## Strategy

A single Sodie D can be seen swimming around in the oasis area of Sizzlin' Sands. It makes a loop around the area's pond. Whenever Sodie D sees sauce slung from the Sauce Slinger either on the ground or another Bugsnak, it stops in its tracks to spray it and remove the offending sauce. Sodie D can be caught by catching it in the Snak Trap. It can also be caught with the Bug Net if the player lures a charging Loaded Spuddy or Preying Picantis into Sodie D.

## Trivia

* Sodie D's name is a reference to the juice SunnyD.
* Sodie D was the first Sodie revealed to the public, seen in the launch trailer.
* Sodies use only the two outer straws for swimming, and spray water from the two inner straws. All four straws are used for walking on land.

Megamaki

**Megamaki** is a Legendary Bugsnak that appears in Boiling Bay during Wiggle's sidequest, "Dance with the Dragon!" It resembles a bristle worm, as well as a long sushi roll, particularly a dragon roll.

## Strategy

Megamaki is a very large Bugsnak that consists of ten segments; the Megamaki head, as well as nine Minimaki followers. Due to the size of this Bugsnak and the method required to catch it, it's recommended to have an empty inventory before starting this encounter.

Megamaki is highly aggressive, and will shoot many roe eggs at the player if they get too close. It will swim and fly in a large repeating path throughout the Bay.

The player must make strategic use of the Trip Shot, using patches of hardened lava on the ground and the giant chopsticks in the bay, in order to stun it. Megamaki's explosive eggs may temporarily destroy these chopsticks, making it more difficult to place the Trip Shot.

Once Megamaki is stunned, it will break apart into segments. The player then has a limited amount of time to run in and catch as many Minimaki segments with their net or Snakgrappler as soon as as possible before it reforms.

Repeat the process as long as needed until all of the Minimaki have been collected. Once each segment is gone, the head of Megamaki will be catchable with the net/ snakgrappler.

## Trivia

* Megamaki's bug basis is a bristle worm and the developers have referred to it as a "sea centipede" as well. Wiggle refers to it as a dragon in-game.
* The music that plays in Megamaki's Battle is called "Megamaki Attack". The song Wiggle performs before Megamaki appears is titled "The Megamaki Serenade".
* The song "Megamaki Attack" is likely a reference to the song "Sushi Attack" in Octodad: Dadliest Catch, similarly made by Young Horses and composed by Seth Parker.
* Megamaki is the only Legendary Bugsnak to not have the Breakable attribute. This is because Megamaki itself is merely the head segment, and the rest of its "body" is composed of Minimaki.
* It's bristle worm categorization may be a reference to a Wyrm, a type of serpentine dragon.
* Megamaki is the only Legendary Bugsnak to have only one word in its name.

Flapjackarak

## 05:00 - 18:00

Flapjackarak is a spider-like Bugsnak resembling a stack of pancakes with bacon strips. It is found during the daytime in Sizzlin' Sands.

## Strategy

When Flapjackarak sees the player, it will pursue them, and begin spinning two of its bacon strips to create a tornado above itself. If the player is caught in this tornado, they will be swept upward, but the tornado can also be used to sweep up other Bugsnax, making them vulnerable to capture. This is especially useful against spicy Snax, as it will extinguish their flame as well. After a few seconds, Flapjackarak will become tired, and it can then easily be captured in the Snak Trap or Bug Net

Can also be caught using the Trip Shot.

## Summer of Bugsnax information

* The devious Flapjackarak stalks across the desert dunes, kicking up whirlwinds with its twirling bacon bits!
* This hearty breakfast comes with a devilish twist!
* Temperament: Confident, cool, relentless
* Myers-Briggs: ESTP

## Trivia

* Flapjackarak's name comes from the North American usage of "flapjack", referring to pancakes. In Europe, the word more often refers to baked oat bars.

Recyclers

**Recyclers** are able to take organic content and convert it into other forms, including food and clothing.

Within the Corporation Rim, most clothing is made from recycler fabric. Clothing is constructed to order and is automatically sized to fit the purchaser, and can be customized in colors or patterns when purchesed. This clothing can be mended using the same technology (ART's recyclers are able to mend bullet holes in Murderbot's clothes). Organic waste is fed into recyclers and synthetic foods can be produced. Within the Preservation Alliance, traditional clothing construction methods and plant-based foods are more common.
Scoopy

Scoopy is a worm-like Bugsnak resembling a series of three ice cream scoops, with a waffle cone as a "nose". It is found in Frosted Peak upon breaking a Scoopy Banoopy.

## Strategy

A Scoopy will spawn upon breaking a Scoopy Banoopy, and will proceed to burrow around the rock outside the lower cave. If approached, Scoopy will attack by flinging scoops of ice cream, which will freeze the player on contact. If it is on solid ground, however, it will flee in fear until it can burrow again. In order to catch Scoopy, its frosty armor must be thawed. This can be done by having it come into contact with a flaming Trip Shot, a campfire, or a Stewdler. Scoopy can then be caught in the Bug Net.

## Related to

* Millimochi

## Trivia

* Despite appearing in the announcement trailer, Scoopy was not an option in the "Which Bugsnak are you?" Instagram lens.
* Scoopy fears Scoopy Banoopy, even though it is a component of it.
* If a Scoopy Banoopy gets hit with a Scoopy's ice-cream scoop, it gets launched into the air.

Buffalocust

Buffalocusts are locust-like Bugsnak resembling boneless buffalo chicken legs, with chicken wings that function as wings as well as legs. They are found in Sizzlin' Sands.

## Strategy

Buffalocust flies in a looping path, and dives out of the sky at anything that comes close in contact with it. When it sees ranch dressing or hot sauce, it will dive into it and hop on the ground for a short time. This dive can be used to attack other Bugsnax, for example, to break an Eggler's shell, or to destroy fragile ground and reveal secrets.

1. Get it stuck in a Flapjackarak's tornado, which will both knock it down and extinguish its flame.
2. If close enough to the Sodie D at to oasis, the Sodie will spray water to extinguish it, also bringing it to the ground. When it falls to the ground, use the Bug Net to catch it. A method of getting it to follow you is get it mad by launching a sauce to it that it does not like and will follow you untill it can attack. Another method is putting a sauce it likes on Sprout and lure it to the oasis.

Reflections

## Soundtrack

Filbo's Lament

**Reflections** is the conclusion/aftermath to the final event Escape From Snaktooth and takes place at the shores of New Grump City. It focuses on the Expedition Team, or a lack thereof, each of them looking back on their time on the island and what they would like to do from this point on. As it is possible to have no survivors, the reflection can solely be Filbo.

Escaping Snaktooth rewards the player with the "Vacation's End" trophy, and, if all survive, the "Survivor" trophy. (These achievements are used in this article to differentiate the survival and succumb lines.)

## References & Notes

Sweetiefly

## 04:00 - 16:00

Sweetiefly is a dragonfly-like Bugsnak resembling a red lollipop. It is found in Garden Grove.

## Strategy

Three Sweetieflies can be seen flying around the main area of Garden Grove. They all fly around in a triangle pattern and periodically go to rest on a nearby tree or rock. While they are awake Sweetieflies will avoid the player as well as the Snak Trap, quickly flying away as soon as one or the other comes close to it.

To capture Sweetiefly, it must be caught in a Snak Trap while resting, either by setting down the trap next to the Sweetiefly that rests on the rock wall, or by launching the trap at it with the Lunchpad. Another method is using the Trip Shot by having the wire cross the Sweetiefly's path.

## Trivia

* Footage from the trailers suggested that this species would be found within Flavor Falls, instead they were added into Garden Grove when the game released.

Rootle

## 18:00 - 04:00

Rootle is a worm-like Bugsnak resembling a carrot. It is found in Flavor Falls at night.

## Strategy

A single Rootle can be seen inching around in a circle in the inner part of Flavor Falls during the night. If the player comes near to Rootle, it will quickly burrow underground to prevent capture, leaving only its backside visible. It emerges from the ground once the player leaves its immediate area. Rootle will also run away from the Buggy Ball, though it will not burrow to hide from it.

If moved from its original range, Rootle will simply crawl around the new area, making no effort to return.

To capture Rootle, the player can set the Snak Trap in its path or trip it using the Trip Shot and collect it using the Bug Net.

## Trivia

* In the gameplay trailer, Rootle is shown as Beffica's favorite Bugsnak, while her favorite is Weenyworm in the final game. This was done so that the quest's solution would not be given away by the trailer.
* Rootle is the second Bugsnak the player is able to catch in the game, the first being Strabby. Strabby and Rootle are the only Bugsnax that spawn in the beginning of the game when gathering snax for Filbo, and at this point a Rootle can be found in the cave with the stone Grumpus face, which is normally instead occupied by a Pinkle and an Inchwrap.

Big Bopsicle

Big Bopsicle is a beetle-like Bugsnak resembling a double popsicle. It is found in Sugarpine Woods. If its icy armor is thawed, it can break into two Bopsicles.

## *Physical appearance*

Big Bopsicle is based on an atlas beetle (species *Chalcosoma atlas*) as well as a popsicle. Its body is a double purple popsicle, with both wooden sticks forming a large pair of mandibles. It has two angry eyes, and four legs, each made of two additional sticks.

## *Strategy*

The **Big Bopsicle** is an aggressive Bugsnak and will attack when the player gets too close to it. Furthermore, it also will freeze any attacker. Big Bopsicles can only be caught complete in two steps - first - the Bopsicle must lose its power to freeze. This can be done in leading it into warm water or near fire. Second step - movement of the Big Bopsicle must be stopped. The Buggy Ball can be used to lure the Bopsicle, the Trip Shot is useful to stop the Bopsicle. Once it's lost its power to freeze, it soon starts to break up into two Bopsicles. It's necessary to be quick with the net to catch it while it is stunned. You can also catch it by lighting the Tripshot on fire and luring the Bopsicle towards it

Interview Floofty!

Time to ask the scientist questions.

 **Objectives:**
* Why is Floofty here?
* What caused them to leave?
* Do they know what happened to Lizbert?

## Interview notes

After having conducted the interview, notes are added to the Journal's Grumpedia section regarding the interview and some of the Journalist's own observation.

**Interview notes**

• Observed Lizbert's transformations in public.

• Dislikes journalists for painting them as creepy.

• Ran experiments on Eggabell as a willing subject.

• Shelda stoked Lizbert's distrust of Floofty, and they fled.

## References & Notes

Scoopy Banoopy

**Scoopy Banoopy** is a large, aggressive Bugsnak resembling a banana split mixed with a giant water bug. It is found on Frosted Peak.

When broken, it splits into three different types of Bugsnax: Scoopy, Cheery, and Banopper.

## Strategy

Scoopy Banoopy is aggressive, and will chase the player if it sees them. When it tackles the player, it will launch them into the air and freeze them. It seems to have a rather short attention span, however, and will quickly turn around and begin to leave if the player gets slightly too far away.

To catch Scoopy Banoopy without breaking it, the player must first thaw it by leading it into something such as fire or a Stewdler, then stun it by using the Trip Shot before the timer runs out. If successful, the player will then be able to use their net to catch it.

If Scoopy Banoopy walks into a flaming Trip Shot, it will instantly be thawed and stunned at the same time, allowing it to be captured.

* Banopper
* Cheery
* Scoopy

## Trivia

* Scoopy Banoopy is named Scoopy Banoopy because it sounds funny.
* Scoopy Banoopy's name was first known from an interview, and its appearance was not revealed until the voice cast trailer a month later. Until then, all that was known was that despite the name, it was *not* a Scoopy.
* If a Scoopy Banoopy gets hit with a Scoopy's ice-cream scoop, it gets launched into the air. (Really high up)
* Despite having two Cheery eyes, only one will pop out when it is split apart

Ruby Peelbug

Ruby Peelbug is a pillbug-like Bugsnak resembling a blood orange or a ruby grapefruit. It can be found in small burrows at the Flavor Falls.

## Strategy

Like all variants of Peelbugs, they can be found hiding in small burrows that the player cannot access. In this case, the Ruby Peelbug is found in a burrow going through the cliff that divides the two halves of Flavor Falls.

Once the Buggy Ball has been obtained, Sprout can be instructed to roll through the burrow, which will chase the Ruby Peelbug out of it's den. It will circle around the area it's been forced out of and quickly run back into the burrow. You can easily capture it with the Snak Trap by placing the trap outside the other end of the burrow and capturing it as it leaves.

Rainbow Sweetiefly

## 04:00 - 16:00

Rainbow Sweetiefly is a dragonfly-like Bugsnak resembling a swirled rainbow lollipop. It is found in Sugarpine Woods.

## Strategy

Rainbow Sweetieflies zip around happily, making them hard targets in motion, but after a moment they slow down onto a surface to rest, making them easier to catch. Some of them are out of reach, requiring skillful use of the Snak Trap, Lunchpad, and Snakgrappler.

Shy Weenyworm

Shy Weenyworm is a worm-like Bugsnak resembling a Chicago-style hot dog. It is found in Scorched Gorge.

## Strategy

Shy Weenyworms can only be found in the hidden burial chamber, accessed by getting a Spuddy to destroy a cracked wall. Two Shy Weenyworms lurk within, squirming slowly along small round paths. They can be captured simply by putting a Snak Trap in their path and waiting for them to enter its range. Though they like cheese sauce, they do not actively seek it out, so it is not useful for luring them.

The easiest and fastest way to catch Shy Weenyworm is to weaponize their hatred of ketchup. If one is covered in ketchup, the other will instantly dash into it and knock it out, making it vulnerable to capture in the Bug Net.

Shy Weenyworm can also be lured with ketchup, but this is more difficult: these Weenyworms hate ketchup, and while they will chase down a ketchup-covered trap, they will attack it and send it flying. If using ketchup as bait, the player must be fast, and close the trap after Shy Weenyworm has entered its range, but before it can knock it away.But when hit by ketchup it will grow and become very aggressive.

Shy Weenyworm can also be captured by getting a Spuddy to charge into it, allowing it to be caught in the Bug Net.

## Trivia

* Shy Weenyworm is based on the style of hot dog popular in Chicago, where Young Horses is based. The "Shy" in its name may come from the "Chi" in "Chicago".
	+ Its hatred of ketchup, as well as Wambus' quote, refer to the very strong opinion some have that ketchup does not belong on a hot dog, especially a Chicago-style one.
* Shy Weenyworm's movement is based on that of a snake.

Chippie

Chippie is a huntsman-like Bugsnak resembling a chocolate chip cookie. It appears in Frosted Peak.

## Strategy

Chippie runs around the mountain, passing through the top cave where Stewdler and Chillynilly can be found. It is too fast to be trapped, but can be stunned by setting up the Trip Shot across one of the cave entrances.

If a Snak Trap is covered in peanut butter, Chippie will run into it and bounce off, creating a very brief opportunity to catch it in the trap.

They don't have it in 'em to be cruel. But...the cruelest thing you can do is not care at all. Oh...maybe I should pay Wiggle a visit. A-after I fix the fence, of course.

## Trivia

* Despite breaking out of the barn, the Preying Picantis and Scoopy Banoopy can still be seen roaming the barn on occasions.

Orange Peelbug

Orange Peelbug is a pillbug-like Bugsnak resembling an orange. It can be found in small burrows at Simmering Springs.

## Strategy

Like all variants of Peelbugs, they can be found hiding in small burrows that the player cannot access. In this case, the Orange Peelbug can be found in multiple small burrows on the side of the rock formations, as well as in hollow logs on the shore. The Peelbug tunnel closest to Gramble's camp is marked with a sign.

Once the Buggy Ball has been obtained, Sprout can be instructed to roll through the burrow, which will chase the Orange Peelbug out of its den. It will circle around the area it's been forced out of and quickly run back into the burrow. You can easily capture it with the Snak Trap by placing the trap outside the other end of the burrow and capturing it as it leaves.

## Related to

* Green Peelbug
* Ruby Peelbug
* Yellow Peelbug

## Trivia

* An early name considered for Orange Peelbug was "Orbinge".
* One of Gramble's Orange Peelbugs is named Steve, as he calls out this name when one escapes from his ranch. The other names he calls out, Manny and Banatalie, likely belong to his Preying Picantis and Scoopy Banoopy, respectively.
