Bugsnax, an indie title from developer Young Horses, is a unique one. In it, players take control of a journalist who ends up on an island full of tasty critters calledBugsnax, and these creatures can be caught to complete quests and gather new journal entries.
Along the journey, players will have to face off againstlarge versions of Bugsnax, appropriately called Legendary Bugsnax. One of Chandlo’s sidequests called Throw Down! will take players to Flavor Falls to go face to face against Mama Mewon, a large watermelon tick that can walk.
This guide will walkBugsnaxplayers through the “boss” fight, so they can capture Mama Mewon and feed it to Chandlo.

How to Catch Mama Mewon
to capture Mama Mewon, players will need to damage her until she starts to crack open. It sounds mean, butChandloreally wants that watermelon.
As soon as the “fight” begins, Bugsnax players will notice a couple of statues in a circle around the cave.Players need to put down their Snak Trap in front of one of these statues, and then wait for the baby melons to surround the trap. They’re attracted to most of the tools in the players' arsenal, so they should start coming fast.
Catch one of the babies in the trap, and the mama will start charging toward the statue, breaking it in the process. At this point, players will need toaim their grappler at the stalactite (sharp rock) above the statue and knock it down on Mama Mewon.
After doing it a few times, the Mewon will change into a new form, and Chandlo will start to distract it away from you. Once Mama Mewon gets stunned underneath one of the stalactites again,go ahead and drop one final stalactite on it to end the battle. Players can now go up to the melon and use the net to catch it for Chandlo.
After players take care of Chandlo’s sidequests, they are one step closer to gaining access to the Isle of Bigsnax DLC content. This update gives players an entirely new biome to explore, with lots of new Bugsnax to capture –there are alsonew trophies and achievements to unlock.
Bugsnaxis available on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
