Empires of the Undergrowth Reviews

I love this game! It's so fun. The ants are well designed and act lifelike - there is something really satisfying about watching a line of leafcutter ants do their thing, or rushing to form a bridge with your fireants before the water rises. It could even stand on its gameplay alone: there is a large variation in the story-mode levels and a large amount of other options as well. I play my favorite levels over and over again. Even the story in story mode was neat - like you'd need an actual story to play a formicarium. If I had to change anything, I'd ask for an option in the custom levels to get a random combination of opponents/start position, perhaps picked from a more limited section of options to match your pick and the difficulty setting. Sometimes I just want to play a level and get surprised, and I found it difficult to get a good balance of opponents without trial and error.

Simple gameplay but with decent amount of depths, ants and creatures are 99% accurate to their real life counterpart, good if you are interesting in Ants and Strategy Games Although the game have much slower pace than your normal RTS (suitable for those who dont have high APM) 10/10 , definitely not addicting

Honestly one of the best strategy games ive ever played, its so amazing the whole concept with ants and that there are different groups and the fire ants can float its super cool.

It's fun and educational, and has lots of replay value.

It's very fun and different variety and modes plus it's also educational

best campein good looks pretty good game not woth 30 bucks though over all 5/10

This is a strategy game about ants, they didn't have to go and make the characters so fun and silly

I've always liked to check out new ant games, and was disappointed most of the time when the game in question wasn't that fun. Pleased to report that this one breaks the mold, enjoyable, well made, gets what is fun about ants and even manages to surprise me with its creativity. Even had me hunt for achievements and replay missions over and over on highest difficulty until I managed to crack the tougher missions. (I will admit I didn't enjoy the ants that only eat termites as much, but you can't nail everything all the time) Well done, devs, thank you for the good times

combines my 2 most favorite things ants and strategy games

I remember I used to watch TheGamingBeaver play this in demo mode when I was a kid and I'm happy to finally get to play it myself. It's just as fun as it looked and I'm having a great time! Definitely worth the money, especially if you can catch it on sale like I did.
