I LOVEEEEEEE THE ANIMATIONS FOR ANT COMBAT 100% RATING! theres one thing and devs pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee do this for the sake of realism, when small ants are fighting soldier/super pred region,add a animation where 3/2 little ants will grab the legs of a bigger ant and throw down the whole body, and for super preds allow small ants like workers to be able to climb then bite. please do this im a huge fan of your work

I was hoping for a mount and bladeish command your troops and conquer the undergrowth type game, what I got was a sequel to a flash game I played over a decade ago, everything lacks actual depth. All the combat in the game is basically rock paper scissors. So agonizingly boring.

Not a true spiritual successor to Microids' original Empire of the Ants. I bought this solely thinking it was, dumb mistake. I still boot up the original (though I had to find a copy compatible with modern hardware). There really is no replacement for it, though Empires of the Undergrowth comes close. For anyone coming to this game without expectations and loved it, I'm glad. I hope some people find enjoyment while looking closely into the amazing world of arthropods. I'm just leaving this hear as a warning for those who played Strategy First's EotA, this has no relation other than to the original novel.

This isn’t an "ant simulator" per se, it's a spiritual successor to the 2001 RTS of the same name, which itself was based on Bernard Werber’s sci-fi novels. While the plot of the books and original game had sapient ants facing existential dread against a godlike human enemy, this game features sapient ants engaged in epic insect wars. Expect boxed-in maps, basic nest-building and small to medium scale battles. This game has some STUNNING VISUALS and a wonderful soundtrack. It's arguably worth the price for the eye-candy alone (if you're into social insects and stuff).
