## What is Ant Simulation Full?

Establish an ant colony! This survival and open world game will set you into a realistic simulation of the insect world. Discover a huge and detailed map populated by different kinds of other insects and watch the swarm behaviour of a complex ant colony with different castes (worker, scouts, soldiers, males, queens and larvae).

Build a deep underground ant nest by digging new chambers and tunnels! Create chambers with a different kind of purpose (food storage, larvae-, pupae chamber or queen chamber). Once your colony has enough worker ants you can accelerate the digging phase.

Search for food resources in order to feed the ant queen and the larvae to let them pupate and transform into a new ant. Once you found a food source you can create pheromone trails to attract other ants or just command them directly to follow you. 
But beware of large spiders, praying mantises, scorpions or an enemy ant colony that are ill-disposed to your colony. 
Enforce attacks to overwhelm larger insects with the power of the swarm!

### 1/5 — This game is trolling me

*2026-04-20*

There’s this black space and I can’t get through it and when I’m a male, I can’t find a queen and and there’s no nuptial flight?! when I’m a queen I can’t dig to make a colony and my eggs won’t hatch and when I am a male I can only find workers from other species and no queens which means I can’t fulfill my purpose. It was so annoying that I had a dream about me completing it.

### 5/5 — Potenzial

*2026-02-22*

This Game is cool. Please make More Updates!

### 5/5 — Add this bro 😎 it cool 🆒

*2025-12-01, version 3.4*

I will like it if you add new foods, queen dies, and workers can die!

### 5/5 — I like this ant game 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

*2025-11-17*

Leafcutter ant Trap-jaw Ant Colony and a Fire Ant colony and a Harvester Ant colony and a honeypot ant colony and an Ant Eater and Can you add some New ant Nest Chamber to? Can you add them to the ant game soon please? The ant eater will be a bad guy in the ant game that you will not play as you can just play the ants 


When I get Close to 1200 Ants or more then that it kicks me out of the game can that be fixed and when I have 100 or 300 Larvae the ants go and feed the Larvae to the Larvae can that be fixed to? When I ask the ants to come get the Dirt out of the Chambers they don’t come and get the Dirt out of the Chambers Please can that be fixed?

### 4/5 — Goood game but

*2025-09-22*

I have been playing the game for around 2 years now and the in game ai has just become old I really think it needs a multiplayer option thank you developers for making such a fun and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

### 3/5 — Egg glitch

*2025-08-10, version 3.4*

I like this game, the 3D is immersive and the challenges of fighting other insects is certainly engaging, but my eggs won’t hatch when I’m queen. Can you please fix this?

### 5/5 — I really like it but please add this

*2025-07-07*

I have 2 things you guys can add— number 1, during the “spring” time of the game the green words can say “Nuptial Flight!” And all the princesses (you) can fly and find a AI male. Number 2: when the nuptial flight is finished you guys could make the eggs we lay into ACTUAL larvae. And it could hatch into Pupae!

### 5/5 — Shut up shimmer is a good

### 5/5 — If your here owner, or your still alive.

*2025-03-15*

Just wanna say, I like the game but here's some problems just one 1. Whenever I'm the queen in the game the eggs I lay won't hatch, and in the data checker which numbers how many eggs and larvae their is. It still at five, and the other problem is because that the queens eggs will hatch but the energy is still at 0. So please fix this as soon as possible.
