  • Great game, could use some balancing

    I get hard levels are supposed to be hard, but Mountain hard is brutal. The wasps one shot every ant except attackers and defenders, at least until you can manage to upgrade them. They also can kill a queen way too fast. With the amount of raids in the mountains it’s very hard to get established and i have only made it past the 15 minute mark 2 times in mountain hard. One time losing because not all my attackers were going towards the wasps after i was pretty well established at over an hour in. This is with half of my ants upgraded to legendary too, of the basics only the defender and adventurer are left purple.

    Also for some reason this game is a massive drain on my battery.

    Hello! We always make the final location in the game more challenging than the previous ones to maintain a sense of difficulty. Try changing your approach to the game. Moving to the early workshop and upgrading your defenders can significantly help you progress. Additionally, combining defenders with bodyguards and redesigning the underground and changing perks during the game as needed can be beneficial. If there is anything else you would like to see in the game or improve, please let us know!
  • Very fun for only being in beta.

    This is a very fun game and you can easily get free upgrades through watching a few ads. The game play is very interesting. I only have a few things i personally don’t like.

    The game play is real time so progress is very slow and it takes about 30 minutes just to complete one level which can drag on in a not so fun sense and besides the daily 6 sugar you can get through watching ads don’t keep up for upgrades that require 3+ sugar to upgrade ants and 1-2 sugar if you was extra supplies the game sometimes offers you.

    Sugar is relatively affordable though, if you are willing to do in app purchases which I know not everyone can afford.

    Over all, I really enjoy this game and I want to love it but the slowness of the game kills me. And the 5 minute speed boost is not enough for me.

    Hello! Thank you for your feedback! In future updates, we plan to make the 2x speed boost more accessible! We will also add more activities for players and new game modes, such as Endless! If there is anything else you would like to see in the game or improve, please let us know!
  • Level problem

    Everything overall is fine until you get to the first mountains level. It’s impossible to defend the colony from wasps and ladybugs if they raid the den every 2 minutes. Even if I am able to fend off one raid, another comes directly after and kills all of my ants.

    Hello! The "Mountains" location was designed to be difficult. Try changing your approach to the game. Pay attention to the interaction of perks at the beginning and adjust them as necessary.

  • A Suggestion!

    Hi I really like your game! Me and my brother started playing it yesterday and it is so fun. I want to ask you guys something, say when your builder ants are building multiple things at once, maybe you guys could add a feature which it focuses on one construction at a time? This feature could be added in the build mode. Thanks you for reading this.

  • balance issues

    the mountain level seems to have significant balance issues. I understand it is meant to be difficult but having several back to back raids makes it quite literally impossible to recover. Also, given the set timing I am guessing you’d have to play in a very specific way to beat this level, as I have restarted several times with several different strategies, and I still am unable to recover from the raids

  • Bug report at least I think

    I’ve been enjoying this game for a while and I’ve only came across one single problem it’s hard to order your ants around like when I get raided sometimes my attackers don’t defend and there’s no way to get them to leading to all of my workers to die and I have no way to get food and rebuild it’s very frustrating

    I suggest you give an opportunity to make it were we can make our own trails for food when I destroy a camp all the food goes to waste because no ant goes that far

    You should also remove the range the attackers have in the den in real life every ant would me notified if there were attackers there should be a button just for getting ready for raids where all ants stay inside and the attackers get ready or just make a new ant

    But yall are doing an incredible and I can’t wait to see this game improve I hope this review helps a bit have a wonderful day.

  • Great game, hard to see

    I honestly love the game, but I can’t see! Idk why, but even with my phone at full brightness, it feels really dark. If there was a way to adjust the brightness from within the game to make it brighter, it’d be perfect
  • Wonderful, but needs improvement

    For a game currently in beta, it’s amazing. I have a few small gripes, but nothing serious.
    -Some of the AI is a bit wonky and doesn’t follow orders.
    -Gameplay is somewhat limited because of the levels and advancement requirements. I suggest a form of “free play” or infinite mode to make things seem more interesting once the levels are complete.
    -More music! The current tracks are great but very limited. New soundtracks would help enhance it in my opinion.

    All in all, excellent. I paid to have ads removed and to get more items because I love it so much, but even without paying it’s great. Ads are optional and you aren’t bombarded with them, and you can complete everything without spending any money/watching any ads.

  • Great game

    Every now and then you find a gem on the App Store that is unlike any other game you play on your phone. This game is it. It’s well made and well balanced. Even though the mountains make me want to throw my phone across the room I will figure out how to beat that level to. Get ready the game is challenging and has depth. I’d give 6 stars but it’s not possible

  • Taking pov

    I wish I could take the POV of a builder ant. You can be able to see what the builder ant sees and you can control it without a being blind. and also make deserts and more easier.
