It was fun at first but the game becomes too time consuming as it only runs when you are in the game , and if you want to get more pheremons fast to meet more bugs you get raided by other players like mad so any progress you make is gone. So its either you spend hours on this game or pay for raid protection to not lose massive progress to others. Unless you got the time or money to burn , do not play this.

Hello and thanks for your reply. Its a playing game, not an idle game. Building timers continue offline, and tech timers would if those existed but they don't. Starts slow and speeds up as you grow your colony just like in real life. A small ant colony takes a long time to build. There also'll be the Valentine's Event soon! Hope this helps, DF.

Really good game and reminds me of Clash of Clans but with ants. And the pixel art style is amazing. I just want one thing to be added to the game. I want a replay thingy. Like in clash of clans where you can view past attacks and also view your defence when you get attacked by other players. I would love to see that in this game. Overall I like this game 11/10 no cap it's a fact.

I really liked the concept, but the game is totally unplayable to new players. Firstly, let's talk about matchmaking, 1 of the earlier quests is to have a battle. Yes, you can challenge the doctor, but his 1st challenge is the only one completable. Other than that, you're sent to attack someone who is way overpowered than you, who is impossible to win. It seems that to get anywhere in the season, you would have to put money in every month, basically making this a subscription based game.
