About this game

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.

Pretty good, I'm giving it 5 stars in the hopes that it'll encourage more updates, I think this game has a lot of potential and I hope they continue working on it. I think they should definitely add a tutorial so you can tell what all does what, ect. I can't seem to figure out how to remove waypoints, and there's definitely glitches/bugs where ants will get stuck if you build walls, instead of going around the walls.

This game is so awesome! I love Games about ants! But I gave it minus 1 star because the game needs to be updated more often, I want to see new stuff. Here are some suggestions: Make it an actual ant hill and not in a cliff or whatever. Add more insects to fight. Fix the glitch where sometimes when you reload the world, your entire colony thing glitches, and you can't get in the other chambers. Make it where every once in a while, A group of another ant colony comes and attacks. Please update mo

This would be a 4 star, however it isn't. I worked on a colony for at least 2-3 hrs. When I tried saving the game, the game sends me to an ad. Ok I guess... I try 1 more time and same thing. I tried 7 times and it would not let me save and kept sending me to another ad. 2nd of all I tried making a premium membership to gain access and it was denied and they still charged my account. This is absoulty ridiculous and uncalled for. Fix your game and we'll talk about 4 stars.
