### 5/5 — It’s amazing but one suggestion

*2026-03-03*

Ok I love this app it does really mimic an ant farm but, can there be a map where the ants dig on there own and there be a surface where the feeding and other stuff could be? That would be awesome!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback.
Perhaps we will do this in the future.

### 5/5 — БАМ и как круто стало

*2026-02-03*

Игра очень Крутая но я тоже бы добавил других насекомых и новый вид мурашек синий такой есть и ещё быстрый рост мурашек

**Developer response:** Спасибо за отзыв. Ваши предложения приняты во внимание.

### 4/5 — It’s very good

*2025-12-20, version 1.1.3*

I like the mechanics of the game and it has easy to understand controls.

### 1/5 — Forced ads.

*2025-11-16*

While clicking the energy button it changed to the ad button and forces an ad randomly. I don’t mind ads when I want but don’t force.

**Developer response:** Yes, the button changes automatically when you run out of energy, but the ad doesn't start automatically; you start the ad display yourself.
