I hate ads. ### 2/5 — Can’t do the first boss will not let me get eggs *2026-08-28, version 4.15.10* Help ### 4/5 — Good be bugged *2026-08-21, version 4.15.10* The game is fun overall I am stuck on world 3 ( sand map ) because it won’t let me buy eggs but pretty fun ### 4/5 — Very Enjoyable Boss Issue *2026-08-15, version 4.15.10* For me the first boss when it highlights what you’re supposed to do, on the attack ant it keeps popping up the eggs to buy for those gems but since I don’t have gems I cant get it and it gets stuck on the highlighting the first attack ant. ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-13, version 4.15.10* I can’t enjoy this game there are too many ads ### 4/5 — バグ修正をお願いします。 *2026-08-12* アプリサポートの方からメッセージをうまく送れなかったため、こちらから失礼します。ガチャをしたいのですが、ひとつ開けるか５つまとめて開けるかの選択画面から先へ進めません。通貨は充分足りているはずなのですが…。新たなアリさんがアンロックされたため、早くお迎えしたいです。よろしくお願いします。 ### 2/5 — Eggs *2026-08-12, version 4.15.10* I have gems on the app but can’t buy any eggs ### 3/5 — Great game... *2026-08-11, version 4.15.10* TOO many ads.... ### 2/5 — ehhhh *2026-08-10, version 4.15.10* i mean…i loved the game at first, actually i loved it for a while. but i lost intrest in it so deleted it. Then there was this random moment where i wanted it back! So i redownloaded it. Problems everywhere!! Ads coming up more often, definitely not the “idle” game, stuck on levels, not to mention i was stuck on level bc i couldnt get the eggs in the shop, both the 1x egg and 5x egg were 40gems but i couldnt get it, so since i didnt have enough power i was stuck. Also when i went to build my territory with the block things i couldnt get out of it. Also the game now is just very repetitive and boring. Devs…PLEAEE fix your game. Or even make another idle game that’s better. 2 stars bc of the problems, if not the problems….it would be 4-5 stars. ### 3/5 — gg *2026-08-06, version 4.15.10* good game but to many ads ### 3/5 — Broken? *2026-08-05, version 4.15.10* The game is fine so far but it won’t let me fight the first boss. It wants me to tap on the ant infantry and then a screen pops up telling me to hatch eggs and I can only tap in and out of that screen. I can’t go back to the ants collecting food, Or go to the shop or anything. I have to leave the game completely to get back to the ants getting food part ### 3/5 — Buggy *2026-08-03, version 4.15.10* I haven’t played in like 2-3 years and I opened the app recently and started playing, when I’m trying to buy eggs for the boss fights it says “40 gems for 1 egg and 40 gems for 5 eggs” but when I click both with 80 gems nothing happens ### 4/5 — Good game *2026-07-31, version 4.15.10* A lot of ads ### 3/5 — Fun but… *2026-07-30, version 4.15.2* The game is fun but I am still on the same level because it won’t let me but eggs with my gems and there are too many adds ### 3/5 — Eggs not working *2026-07-29, version 4.15.2* For some reason, the 1 egg and 5 egg packs are both 40 gens, and even with this much, I can’t buy either ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Boring *2026-08-23, version 4.15.10* Didnt give me level reward. Boringggg ### 1/5 — Can’t fight the next boss so I can no longer advance *2026-08-16, version 4.15.10* The boss “isn’t ready” and the game tells me I have to wait 179 hours or pay 10,740 gems in order to fight it. That’s almost $300 worth of gems. I assume it’s a bug. ### 1/5 — To many ads *2026-08-14, version 4.15.10* Way to many ads the game wants you to pay TEN DOLLARS for no more ads don’t waste your time on this trash game ### 1/5 — Forced ads *2026-08-14, version 4.15.10* Don’t force ads. ### 1/5 — Forced ads. *2026-08-13, version 4.15.10* Forced ads ### 1/5 — Booooooo *2026-08-10, version 4.15.10* It isn’t letting me buy any eggs and you need eggs to fight the boss it’s rigged ### 1/5 — Crazy bug *2026-08-06, version 4.15.10* I js re-downloaded the game after a while. Spent 15$ on it. And suddenly I can’t even get to the next level. Bc it says I need the infantry ant. But I don’t have it. And can’t open eggs to get it bc it doesn’t let me click on anything else. It’s annoying and now the games unplayable. ### 1/5 — Stops loading *2026-08-05, version 4.15.10* I’ve put tons of hours into this game. And now the stupid app won’t load on my phone at all. It got to a point where it would crash, and the ants would TAKE MONEY instead of giving it to me. Super freaking annoying. And now the dang thing won’t even let me open, just keeps saying “Failed Loading Services.” This is dumb, I loved playing this game. Don’t waste your time it’ll just kick you off when you start making progress. ### 1/5 — Can’t even open an egg *2026-07-27, version 4.15.2* I have tried everything to open a egg, but it won’t even let me open it, I tried closing the app. Nothing. Tried deleting it and redownloading. Nothing. I can’t make it past the second city boss because I can’t even open an egg… ### 1/5 — Glitch *2026-07-27, version 4.15.2* Redownloaded this game because I enjoyed it. I can’t even beat the first boss because the game glitches when it wants you to click on the first ant, and doesn’t allow you to do anything. Really disappointing ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — ants *2026-08-22, version 4.15.10* Fun game ### 5/5 — it’s really fun *2026-08-05, version 4.15.10* this game is so fun and addictive ### 5/5 — Eat and fight *2026-08-03, version 4.15.10* The best ant game ever ### 5/5 — Ship game *2026-08-03, version 4.15.10* Ant spastic ### 5/5 — Neil *2026-08-01, version 4.15.10* turn off 10 ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-07-28, version 4.15.2* So satisfying love it whoever made it is to goat 😂❤️❤️❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — Good *2026-07-25, version 4.15.2* Good good ### 5/5 — More worlds please!!🥺 *2026-07-23, version 4.15.2* I love this game but I finished it really fast and now I just want more worlds. ### 5/5 — Zaddy *2026-07-19, version 4.15.2* Fun when I’m bored ### 5/5 — Love you’re game *2026-07-17, version 4.15.2* I love this game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
