Bugdom is an incredibly diverse 3D action/adventure game for your Macintosh which is great for the entire family.
CompatibilityTHE STORY
The Bugdom was once a peaceful place ruled by the Rollie Pollies and the Lady Bugs, but not long ago the Bugdom was overthrown by the clan of the Fire Ants. After recruiting other bugs to help fight for them, they captured all of the Lady Bugs and are holding them prisoner. The leader of the Fire Ants, the new king of the Bugdom, is King Thorax. Once he is defeated, the Bugdom will return to the peaceful place it used to be.
You are Rollie McFly, the only remaining bug capable of saving the Lady Bugs and restoring peace to the Bugdom. Rollie has been hiding in the Lawn area of the Bugdom and will need to travel far to get to the Ant Hill where the battle with King Thorax must take place. There will be water to cross, bugs to ride, and plenty of enemy forces to defeat, but once the Fire Ants and King Thorax have been defeated, you will become the new ruler of the Bugdom and peace will be restored.

Comments
This game indeed was bundled with OS9 a few times, a problem is that this is an OEM version and when you simply copy it from an iMac Restore CD to a PowerMac G4, it will not start and show the message "this copy is not licensed for your system."
So one would need to upload a version for free... Do they actually still sell this game??
It's on my iMac 9.0.4 restore CD.

Can anybody make this a free download?
Runs on 3DFX hardware, but your 2D card draws the cursor and your status bar. If you don't pass your 2D card's signal through your Voodoo (use one screen for 2D, one for 3D), you can see everything, but clicking "start" is a pain.
Oh my gosh! It's Bugdom! I always used to play this in the gifted program before the school got rid of all the iMac G3's!!!
Crashes on Sheepshaver.
Used to play this on my friends iMac years ago, it's not bad but the levels are too repetitive.
We used to have this on iMac G3 computers at our elemenary school (for absolutely no reason).
It's an OK game
