Play scrappy working class exterminators protecting the planet from a secret alien invasion!
Strange things are happening in your small town…
The aliens thought they could infiltrate small town America – but they didn’t count on Doug and his Bug Busters!
Doug started Bug Busters Ltd to deal with cockroaches, rats, and the occasional raccoon in the dumpster behind the arcade. Then came the Swarm Wars of ’86 – a weeklong nightmare that hit his hometown of Eerie, Indiana, when the bugs got big, organized, and ready for a takeover.
Doug and his ragtag crew fought back from basements, rooftops, and the bowling alley parking lot. But when the dust settled, no one believed their story. The official reports blamed gas leaks and mass hysteria – anything but the truth.
Now, years later, he’s quietly built network of protectors, one franchise at a time. Welcome to Bug Busters, a rules-light tabletop RPG about small-town exterminators fighting a secret alien invasion in a world of cheap pizza, dive bars, and blaring rock anthems. Buckle up!
- A grocery clerk was bitten by an oversized insect they say must have hitched a ride from South America.
- Weird graffiti (cockroaches, of all things) keeps popping up around downtown. The Chamber of Commerce is furious, but the Sheriff seems oddly indifferent.
- White vans with radar dishes are parked around town, and when citizens ask, the workers just say they’re “fixing the phone lines.”
- The new exterminator company in town? All their employees have the same ghostly white hair and baby-blue eyes.
It’s your job to figure out what’s going on, keep the locals calm, and maybe save humanity while you’re at it. No pressure.
