6 itemsAbout the Game
Winter Nest is a resource management and survival simulation game. You will take on the role of a beetle, exploring a miniature underground world, working alongside your ant companions. Cultivate fungi, raise aphids, prepare essential supplies, and survive the harsh winter together.
Explore and Expand the Underground World
Command your ant companions to clear obstacles, carve through tunnels, and excavate new chambers. Expand your territory step by step and build a thriving underground nest.
Divide Labor to Gather Resources
Assign tasks to your ants—cultivating fungi, raising aphids, venturing out to gather materials, and exploring new areas. Work together to produce and collect enough resources to survive. You can also take matters into your own hands—plant, farm, and do whatever you choose.
Maintain the Temperature
In an underground world buried beneath ice and snow, use fermentation techniques to withstand the cold. Build heating structures and use tools to survive the entire winter, while carefully monitoring the temperature of each chamber.
