An RTS, in which we command an army of ants. Empire of the Ants is an adaptation of a novel of the same name, written by Bernard Werber and published in 1991.
Empire of the Ants is a real-time strategy game developed by Tower Five, responsible for games such as Lornsword Winter Chronicle and XIII. It's an adaptation of a novel of the same name, written by Bernard Werber and published in 1991.
Empire of the Ants takes place in a French forest, more specifically - in a conflict-ridden world of ants. The player controls the "savior" of the titular insects, whose task is to lead them to domination over the local ecosystem.
Our objective in Empire of the Ants is to create a prosperous anthill. To do so, we must gather supplies, expand our headquarters and recruit troops to ensure our safety. In the longer term we can ally with the local wildlife and lead our armies to battle for new territories. Combat requires tactical thinking and skillful use of our ants' abilities. The game features a day-and-night cycle as well as changing seasons, which affect the environment and the mechanics.
We can also directly control a single ant from the third-person perspective (TPP), interacting with other ants and denizens of the forest.
Due to the gameplay's complexity, the developers have prepared special tutorials to introduce us to the game; aside from that, the difficulty is modifiable and adjustable to one's individual preferences.
Empire of the Ants can be played in singleplayer and multiplayer.
Empire of the Ants runs on the Unreal Engine 5. The game's visuals are very high quality; the locations are densely vegetated and filled with detail, just like the ants themselves.

Game Ratings for Empire of the Ants Video Game.
God is a Geek: 7.5 / 10 by Steve Chambers
Empire of the Ants is a true celebration of our natural world that just happens to be disguised as a real time strategy game.
Thumb Culture: 4 / 5
I thought that Empire of The Ants was going to have a lot more gameplay centred around the building of the colony. Now, don’t get me wrong, commanding armies against other bugs/insects is fun. But when I think of ants, I think of them as an entire colony. The combat is fun and engaging, although slow, especially when units are moving to a location. However, the ant we play should also be more a part of the action and not just use buffs. I do like the movement of the controlled ant. As the story starts off simple, I definitely say keep playing and you’ll be pleasantly surprised. It becomes rather fun and interesting, and when it did, I was hooked. I was surprised to learn that Empire of The Ants was also based on the book, which I looked into further, and honestly, I was intrigued. I’m awarding Empire of The Ants the Thumb Culture Gold Award. It’s a good relaxing RTS.
Capsule Computers: 9.5 / 10 by Dustin Spencer
