About the Game

COMMAND THE ANT COLONY

You shape the entire colony as one living system: set priorities, build the infrastructure and pick your castes, then watch hundreds of autonomous workers carry out your plan. The colony must prevail!

RUN THE SUPPLY LINES

Seekers fan out across the forest to find food, and loaders haul it home along steady supply lines. Watch resources stream between the surface and your nest in a living conveyor of ants – the better your routes, the faster your colony grows.

BUILD & SCALE

Freely build and carve your own underground kingdom, tunnel by tunnel – any block can be dug out and built on. Place storerooms, barracks, brood chambers and farms wherever you like, and grow from a few diggers into a sprawling, living nest.

DEFEND THE QUEEN

80+ foes – spiders, scorpions, wasps and rival colonies – raid your nest, steal your food and hunt your queen. Turn your tunnels into choke points to hold the line, then march your swarm topside to raze enemy nests and take the map!

EVOLVE YOUR SWARM

Every ant has a role. Workers, carriers, scouts, warriors and more, each with its own look and strengths. Unlock new species and evolutions, and combine castes into almost any ant build you can imagine.
