Grounded: List of enemy bugs, creatures, monsters, and other mobs

Grounded is a big, small adventure, filled with creepy crawlies.

Grounded is an upcoming survival sandbox game from Obsidian, set in someone's back yard. Indeed, in Grounded, you're shrunk down to the size of an ant, and must survive by scavenging items from your surroundings, or "borrowed" from your vanquished (vanqsquished?) enemies.

Here is a growing list of all the mobs and critters we've found in Grounded so far.

It's a big world out there

Grounded is Obsidian Entertainment's latest title, offering a unique survival experience where the player is the size of an ant, and everything in the backyard wants to make you its next meal.

Grounded Passive mobs

Passive mobs in Grounded are usually small and fearful critters that flee on-sight, or will attempt to flee if you try to attack them. Others are simply helpless, and can be smushed for materials and often food as well.

Name	Details	Picture
Grub	Grubs are protein-filled worm-like bois that dig around underground. You can extract them with a shovel when you see something digging underground. Loot: Grub Hide, Grub Goop, Raw Grub Meat
Aphid	Aphids scurry around creating honeydew, and are the favorite food of ladybugs. And well, now you too. Loot: Raw Aphid Meat
Weevil	Weevils are shy critters that often get attacked by, well, everything. They'll flee if you hit them! Loot: Raw Weevil Meat, Weevil Nose

Grounded Neutral mobs

Neutral mobs aren't aggressive, but will attack if you upset them. Some even link up with other friends, leading to sticky situations potentially. Be careful if you plan to engage!

Worker Ant	Worker ants can be seen all over the place, attacking other insects for food, and farming honeydew. These bugs will be where you get your first set of armor most likely. Loot: Ant Parts, Ant Mandibles
Ladybug	Ladybugs roam around, knocking down grass stems and munching on aphids. They're pretty nasty if you upset them, though, so be weary.

Grounded Aggressive mobs

Aggressive mobs are the ones that are truly nasty, and must be avoided if you don't wish to end up in a bitter fight to the death. Some are easier to kill than others. Mites and Gnats are aggressive, but are squishy as heck. On the other side of the spectrum, Wolf Spiders will ruin your day if you hang around for too long. For the bigger critters, you may need higher level weapons and armor.

Name	Details	Picture
Gnat	Gnats are annoying flies that buzz around and get in your face. Slap them a couple of times, and they'll go down.
Mite	Mites are small spider-like creatures that like to bite off more than they can chew. Easily squished with any weapon.
Infected Mite	Infected Mites are more powerful than their red cousins, and cause poisonous wounds when they bite.
Infected Weevil	Unlike regular Weevils, Infected Weevils will rush you and then explode, having been infected with some kind of spore fungus.
Spiderling	Often found inside spider dens, these squishy spider babies die quick, but can swarm too.
Soldier Ant	Found inside ant hills, Soldier Ants are far more powerful than Worker Ants, with powerful attacks that require armor to withstand.
Stinkbug	These angry beetles will chase you down and spray poisonous acid clouds before trying to munch you to death. Arrows are a good option against them.
Bombadier Beetle	Similar to Stinkbugs, Bombadier Beetles spray a nasty chemical from their abdomen when disturbed. Oh, and they want to kill you. A lot.
Orb Weaver Spider	These smaller spiders travel around the map putting up sticky webs on random blades of grass. The larger ones are tough, but sometimes there are smaller ones around that can be picked off more easily.
Wolf Spider	So far, this is the most powerful critter I've seen in the game. Relentlessly speedy and murderous, this big boi should probably just be avoided.
