Ant's Diary vs ANTS

Protect the Queen—grow your colony to 100 ants! "Ant's Diary" is a real-time strategy game where you raise an ant colony. Adjust the roles of your worker ants around the queen, survive enemy raids, and build a thriving colony of 100. 4 Roles to Strategize • Foragers (Green): Gather food on the surface and carry it to the nest • Nurses (Pink): Feed larvae to raise new worker ants • Soldiers (Red): Fight enemies and defend the colony • Digger: Digs to expand the nest — Completing rooms increases food and brood capacity Adjusting the balance of roles to match the situation is the key to survival. Nest Expansion & Chambers • Assign workers to digging and the nest grows organically from existing tunnels. Food stores or brood chambers form automatically as needed. • Chambers raise food and brood capacity. When food storage is full, foragers wait and automatically resume as soon as space opens. • Nurses carry eggs from the queen's chamber to brood chambers and bring food from storage. After 3 feedings, a larva becomes a pupa. Explore 2 Worlds • Surface: A dangerous world where you gather food and battle enemies • Nest: A safe haven to raise larvae and dig new chambers Defend Against Enemy Raids As time passes, enemy attacks grow fiercer. Build up your soldiers in advance to prepare. Score Attack Challenge Your time to reach 100 ants is your score. Aim for the fastest record and try again and again!

Command an ant colony in a native real-time strategy game built for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Gather food, expand the hive, research biological evolution and improvised machinery, capture territory, survive hostile wildlife and break the rival colony before it breaks yours. A COMPLETE STRATEGY BATTLEFIELD • Build farms, chambers, workshops, depots, towers and a motor pool. • Train specialised infantry, from collectors and scouts to chemical troops, gunners, medics, mortar teams and commandos. • Deploy asymmetric vehicles including harvesters, transports, tanks, artillery and air units. • Research linked biological and mechanical technology branches. • Use attack-move, hold, stop, rally points, transports, repairs, numbered control groups and the tactical map. • Fight across seven distinct grounds with deformable terrain, cover, wildlife, living resource fields and neutral territory points. KNOW WHAT YOUR COLONY IS DOING • A red alert banner and a pulsing tactical-map marker tell you the moment your colony is attacked, and take you straight to the fighting. • An idle-forager control finds workers who have stopped earning. • Numbered squad chips keep your army one tap away. • Production readouts show exactly what is being built and how close it is. CAMPAIGN, SKIRMISH AND NEARBY MULTIPLAYER Play an eight-mission 3D campaign, configure human-versus-AI skirmishes, revisit the classic 2D campaign, or fight another commander on the same local network. Nearby multiplayer exchanges deterministic command frames rather than streaming the world, keeping both simulations in lock-step.

No account. No ads. No tracking. No in-app purchases. ANTS contains frequent stylised insect combat and optional stylised insect gore. Combat presentation can be reduced or turned off in Settings.
