What are Bugs?

Bugs are Chobots’ in-game currency, and there are plenty of fun ways to earn them, from racing with your friends in space to fishing at the beach! You can spend your hard-earned Bugs on a variety of items, including clothing, house upgrades, magic, pets, and much more! In this guide, I’ll walk you through all the different ways to earn Bugs in Chobots.
