Experience an ant colony up close. Control an individual ant, explore different environments and help your nest search for food, water and new sources of protein.
You can also observe the entire colony from above and watch individual decisions develop into coordinated swarm behavior.
PHEROMONE-BASED COLONY BEHAVIOR
The ants navigate using a pheromone system. Scouts discover resources, foragers follow existing trails, and the colony responds to food sources, changing needs and nearby threats.
This creates believable swarm behavior in which the ants work together and adapt to the current situation.
SEARCH FOR FOOD AND SUPPLY THE NEST
• Discover fruit and other carbohydrate sources
• Collect protein from flies and other insects
• Carry gathered resources back to the nest
• Build up the colony’s food reserves
• Supply the queen and developing brood
DEVELOP YOUR LARVAE
Inspect individual larvae and follow their development. Larvae require carbohydrates and protein before they can complete the next stage of growth.
Depending on the available nutrients, you can select different development paths, such as worker or soldier. A well-supplied brood is the foundation of a growing and resilient colony.
MANAGE THE COLONY
• Assign ants to nest work, foraging and defense
• Adjust the foraging range
• Define the defensive perimeter around the nest
• Manage food reserves and colony needs
• Observe eggs, larvae and developing ants
• Use automatic or manual role assignment
EXPLORATION AND DANGER
Explore the nest and its surroundings from an ant’s perspective. Search for new resources and encounter other insects, spiders and rival ant colonies.
Observer Mode allows you to follow larger colonies, migration paths and battles from different viewpoints.
