Welcome to the secret life of ants! Ant Life lets you raise your very own ant colony in a sunny garden, above and below the ground. Hatch ants, gather food, dig tunnels, build chambers and defend the mound from hungry bugs. DIG YOUR NEST Open the soil under your mound one tunnel at a time. Deeper layers are harder to dig but hide seeds, gems and fossils. Watch out for cave-ins, floods and mould, and dig air tunnels to make your chambers work better. BUILD AND UPGRADE CHAMBERS Build six chambers and upgrade them up to level 10: the Queen Chamber, Nursery, Granary, Barracks, Fungus Garden and Evolution Chamber. Bigger chambers mean more eggs, more food in store and more soldiers, and they look grander as they grow. MEET YOUR QUEEN Your queen lives in her own chamber. She rests, grooms her antennae, stretches, nibbles a snack, naps at night and lays the eggs your colony hatches. DEFEND THE MOUND Bug raids come with a warning. Hatch soldiers, call your ants together with Rally, burn the attackers with Acid and keep the mound standing. Eight kinds of bugs each have their own trick: ladybugs wear hard shells, fig beetles butt ants away, spiders spin webs and bite with venom. GATHER FOOD Draw pheromone trails to lead your workers to food, carry giant apples and bread home together, and grow food of your own in the Fungus Garden. EVOLVE YOUR ANTS Research stronger jaws, tougher shells, faster legs, bigger loads and more in the Evolution Chamber. ALWAYS A NEXT GOAL Follow the queen's quests, finish daily tasks, keep your login streak and level up your colony. Your colony keeps working while you are away. SIX KINDS OF ANTS Workers, Soldiers, Scouts, big-headed Majors, Green Workers and Gold Soldiers. DECORATE YOUR GARDEN Use gems in the Shop to change the background, invite new bugs, plant fruit trees and bring in butterflies. FREE TO PLAY Earn gems from quests, buried treasure and short videos, or pick up a gem pack. A one-time Remove Ads purchase turns off banner and full-screen ads. Prefer a calm garden? Peaceful mode turns raids and nest accidents off. Ready to start your colony? Download now and watch your ants grow!
