Leave a Review Idle Ants
Fun buggy too often ads
Overall the game is fun. Fun to watch the ants move and eat away at the different items. My issue with the game is that at the higher levels, money goes backwards. At higher levels when you watch an ad to double the points, the money goes backwards and into the negative. At end of each level, it pretty much shows an ad no matter if you press the X and choose not too. The game could use more dynamics to the game play. Perhaps obstacles to avoid and rewards for fast times and achievements. Maybe lighten up on the ads and at least fix the bugs.Show lessStudioJustin
Ads ads ads ads, want no ads? Its $10 for an idle game
I GET you need some form of revenue, ads or a paid app, but there is a time and a place for it, you cant play even 1 minute of this game without ad bombardments. I dont mind a certain amount of ads in a game, but when you are shoving an ad bonus every 20 seconds it makes never want to play this game again. Want 2x resources? Watch an ad, how long does the buff last?? 1 minute. 2x speed? 1 ad = 1 minute boost. Im not here to watch commercials all day, and i cant even get a proper experience of the game to even want to spend $10 to “enjoy” the game. Also, its an idle game, it will never be worth $10 to “play” a brain dead game.
I wanted to like this game, but the ads and cost is dumb. And i cant recommend this game to anyone, unless you have $10 to just throw away.Show lessAWishfulPlayer
Fun and relaxing game but where did all my money go?!
Ok I like this game because it is fun and relaxing and makes you i dont know see stuff.... it’s been one or two weeks....and I so happen to click on this game to see how much money I got. And I come back to MY MONEY GONE!!! WHERE DID IT GO?! I still give this a 5 star though because I still have all my ants and stuff that I brought. So that’s good. Maybe it’s just my device. I hope it’s just my device. If it is sorry for uhh yelling. Have a good day and stay safe in this Covid worldShow lesslayty2k
I like it
It’s by no means a complicated game but I like it. The worlds while not earth shattering give a change of items. I don’t know if I’d like it half as much if I didn’t get the no ad package but it’s pleasant to play while I listen to audio books. My biggest complaint is that I have to tap to receive my money at the end of each round which makes it so it’s not very idle. Other than that? Good game.Show lessShadow8797
Almost okay! But not okay.
I like tycoon games. I don’t download many app store games, but one day I decided to see what the app store had to offer. I saw that this was a tycoon game and sometimes I just like clicking on things to make numbers rise. This game is so close to being good, but the fact that you HAVE to watch an ad after you beat the level makes the game nearly unplayable. This app isn’t worth the $9.99 that removes the ads. Maybe $5, but all I’m doing is looking at ants run back and forth. I’d actually gladly watch a few of the ads that give you bonuses, but I don’t want to because the developers got so greedy that they decided to force you to sit through an ad after every level. When levels only take about 12 seconds to get though, you’re staring at an ad for longer than you’re looking at ants. It probably gets as bad as 30 seconds of level, 30 seconds of ads sometimes. This game should be called Idle Ads. They claim in the newest update that there’s new sound design but the only sound that this game makes is the audio from ads. Ads ads ads. I get the feeling that the developer(s) don’t care because they probably make $200 off of each person from ad revenue. Apple’s not going to do anything about it. So the developers are going to sit there raking in money. And here I am, beating a level, closing the app and reopening it just to get past a level without having to sit through a 30 second ad.Show lessLeeppy
Fun
It is a fun game, and could have a lot of promise. I have found 1 bug or issue i was not aware of before... I have made it to the last level and every time the ants bring sections of the food back, it decreases my money amount and will even bring it to a negative amount, meaning i am unable to purchase any upgrades unless i move back to other worlds or when the entire thing is removed. After reading a handful of other reviews it doesn’t seem like anyone else has had this problem, but perhaps it’s just my device that has this issue, but i have all the latest updates on my device. so I’m not sure what the issue is.Show lessAwesome chic 42
Great game!
So for anyone reading reviews, it’s a good game. Not super busy like some other idle games so it’s easier to look at. It’s fun to watch as well; the early game is kind of relaxing to look at.
For the developers, I’m excited to play it. I like that the game isn’t aggressive to look at. Watching the ants go back and fourth makes me keep the app open longer than some of the other apps like this (trust me, I have a lot lol.) The thing that eventually makes me look away is how the ants start running through each other; it sorta gets hard to follow, then it’s just not as nice to look at. Ants in the wild create little “highways” where they form lanes of traffic. I think that adding something similar would really increase the time that people keep the app open, and squeezing a few more add views in there as well.
Thanks for the app and keep up the good work!Show lessJoshjameshawk
Why I like this game
Ants are working for me I love thisevmaerbrockhurst boys
ANT-SOME! (sorry, don’t use puns much)
It’s extremely satisfying to watch the ants work as you progress through the game, there are even awesome looking special ants that you can get for just $9.99 as a bundle, but only if it pops up, the bundle is not in the shop, but you will be able to get these ants with or without the bundle.
Just download the game and give it a whirl, if you don’t like it, then duh-delete it. But if you do end up enjoying it, I hope you’re having as much, maybe even more fun than I am.
Anyway, this next bit is for the developers:
A button to switch from current upgrade progress to starting progress (something like that, as long as the upgrades reset.) would be a great addition for the game, it would give players different ways to play and make it extremely satisfying to only have a single ant have maximum strength and watch it work.
And a button to activate/deactivate the special ants would be a nice feature too, the game would then be absolutely perfect from there as more worlds are added to it in the future.
I’d even pay $2.99 or SLIGHTLY more to actually get to use those features if they were added to the game. And no, that wasn’t a bribe, at least it wasn’t intended to be. I mean, if I’m going to spend money on something I might as well enjoy it, and if I get the chance to help make it better, then I (try) to make myself heard.
Thanks for reading and have a G’day and a G’night.Show lessFierce the Dragon
Concept good, execution meh.
Only about a weeks worth of content in the app as of November 2020.
Pretty disappointed that once I hit the world limit, ants putting the food in the hole would actually decrease my money instead of increasing it. Cant tell if this is a bug or just a stop gap to keep players from getting too over-powered and clearing levels in literal seconds.
Either way, it frustrated me but the game itself was a nice little time waster while I had nothing to do for a while.Show lesskylethequeer
