Community Insight:
Its so cool. We never played this before.
We love the game ; however there seems to be more time spent watching adds than actual gameplay. Im seriously considering deleting it for this reason.
Could use a few more things it gets kind of boring. We kind of wish that the tree could maybe have some termites or something and maybe some battles against other players please read thank you.
The day we got this game we loved it and we still do! In just one day we reached level 10!!! Crazy right!?!? But also, we want to you to add some customization for our ants, and genders too. So please add this in a future update. Other than that, LOVE THE GAME.
Im having a lot of fun playing this game, but our main problem is at this point all of our ants are at lvl 21, which means we cant upgrade them anymore until we find these grey crystals. We have so many orange ones almost 600 and we have yet to find a single grey crystal. At this point Im not even convinced they are in the game because Ive dug up so many new spots for crystals and they are all orange.
We like ants we treat them with care we help by giving food we set injured back to colony this game means a lot to us.
Ok so at the first five levels not to many adds but after that every 5seconds add the adds are long and pointless. They should rename the game adds cause thats most of the game.
Its the best game Ive ever played.
The first time you have seen the video That was you and your friends in a movie and it made us cry we were like wow we are very happy to be in a video and.
Perfect game but we legit finished within a few hours :( we could go on but we dont get to spawn more ants. With such good ratings on this app we dont understand why it hasnt been expanded!! PLEASEEEE do.
This gam is a ant game and it has no ads we love this we just love this game its too fun.
Being at lvl 50 with lvl 21 ants doesnt leave much room for improvement.
With a 30 second unskippable ad that is 1/5 of your entire gameplay. 20% of the gameplay is forced ads.
Its a fun game, only downside is that there are so many adds that it makes it hard to play. Also now you need gray gems to upgrade your ants but we have yet to find where the gems are located. We have hundreds of regular gems but cant upgrade the ants due to this new addition to the game. Hopefully they fix it soon.
Love the game. It is super fun, in the 20 second intervals between ads you actually get to play. We have played for almost an hour and only made it to level 3, because we have to stop every 20-30 seconds to watch the same 4 ads on a cycle. The only way to remove ads is to pay the $7 in game.
Im very picky about the games Im willing to pay for no ads. And this is one we went ahead and did it. Its a well done simple game. Easy to build up your player & the npc ants. It is definitely the epitome of idle game play. Once you have a few digger ants and battle ants you can just run around and let them keep things going & pitch in while waiting for eggs to be dropped and for the crystals to grow back. We like it. Its fun. Now we JUST updated and Im REALLY hoping theres more digging added. We reached the last chamber and its marked Coming soon. That actually happened pretty fast and we only play maybe 30 min a day. Keep going guys! Ill keep playing for sure! And we dont know about all the other 5 star reviews but Im definitely not a Chinese bot. This review is legit coming from Chicago which is a brisk 36F in late March and will probably be 90 tomorrow. Lol! Sorry, we hate it when reviewers take cheap shots at hard working developers.
Every two minutes you get one ad that last is for 60 seconds we hate this game. Its one of our worst games. It would be a lot better if there was no ads or ads every 20 minutes cause then that would seem fair but nope.
Its a great game and we spent an entire three days building our empire, but we think it needs a little more exciting like new roles or something like that but overall its a great game.
Love the game but everything is maxed and nothing else to do. Waiting for more content to be added.
We love the game, but when will be get a next board after level 55 completion.
We love this game its entertaining addictive and calming its its a wonderful game if it wasnt for the fact when the queen reaches the level 14 it cant get leveled up more developers please fix this issue otherwise its a wonderful game.
Thanks a lot for the great great game.
Yeah this game wouldve been perfect without all the GOD DAYUM ADDS LIKE GOSH.
We cant stop playing it! Its so entertaining! We think you should get it too.
Im already on our second fighter.
It is a nice fun game love that you can upgrade to get better and better so get it now.
Never mind the problems we love it its the best and we love it so much its really cool And you get the tiny little baby eggs and guess what They grow so fast and we love their little eyes this is the best ant game ever.
DO YOU LOVE ADDS???? Well youre in luck with this amazing game! Play for about 30s and BAMOOO add pop up! But WAIT, just in case you didnt have enough adds dont you worry one little bit, cause right after the first 50 adds you see youll get plenty more! Adds for you, adds for us, adds for them, adds, adds, adds! Download as soon as you can to watch pointless adds with little game play today.
Adds are small but long and every few minutes there are and we love the game but it lags and we were stuck on two adds and a cant get out of them in the past and now this is so best. Im destroying Beatles now so that is crazy. Thanks for the game. Its the best.
So we now play this game daily because its very fun but there is an bug when we defeated 3 grasshoppers it said emergency again and it was 3 grasshoppers.
We like this game we love it. Ive been playing it A lot and we learned it could be no Internet but now it doesnt do it anymore and we got it yesterday. Please fix this. We want to have no Internet so we can play the game in your car rides.
We just noticed that you and\or the other ants heal when you go back into your empire.
Lovely game, finished it in several days and we want more. We have several egg slots left but no more eggs from the queen to fill them. True ant hills just keep growing. Please let us keep going.
You guys should add aphids to the game but not as an enemy. Instead the aphids would stay inside the ant mound and the ants would give them protection and the ants would be able to use the aphids as a resource to collect sugary foods.
We love this game! However, we maxed out everything! This game needs a major expansion soon! Hopefully something is in the works because we want to play more :).
Everything about this game make us feel so relaxed! So this game gets a 5 star rating.
Dumb workers dumb fighters dumb feeders. We feel like we get brainrotted when we look at them.
Its fun but slow and it takes a long time for you to get around. You also dont get food often. And there is not many adds. Tho we do like this game and we think you should try this game.
We were playing but in level 47 (47 meats) we gave us the egg but in level 49 (49 meats) it glitched and didnt gave it and when we close the window it says level 51 (51 meats) and there was no egg so there is 1 ant left (solution you can get infinite ants in a place but its random between (Miner , Fighter , Fooder And All (All does what it likes to do but when you finish a level it changes between Miner Fighter Fooder If another level completes it changes again)) Edit we got the ant.
We really love the game we just started, but, so far very good it's pretty calming! We recommend this game.
This game is a good time wasterbut if you pay to remove the ads, youll finish the game in literally 2 days.
ALL IS SEE IS break time in # we HATE ADS we LOVE THE GAME BUT we CANT LOVE IT IF we CANT PLAY IT.
Dont put the ads to get stuff in the middle of the path and to many ads but other wise its a good game.
Generally, this game is pretty fun, but when theres in-game purchase ads that dont go away and ad breaks every 5 minutes or so, it gets really frustrating.
Its a great game, however, we wish the workers would feed the queen instead of putting it in the box, oh and speaking of the box, we think they should get rid of it, its a wast of time. Like when an ant dies it SHOULD NOT COME BACK!!! Anyway the ads get annoying sometimes but they arent that bad. Thank you for your time, we hope you have a good day.
Way too many ads! Literally every 30 seconds an ad plays without you clicking on anything. Fun game otherwise, we noticed the extra carry capacity upgrade didnt work which was lame, but not as lame as the ads.
Nothing past Stage 55. (Coming soon) it says. Honestly it would have been nice if the lil black ant could do a little more. We wasnt sure if we were going to make it to stage 55. We almost deleted it just from boredom. So repetitious.
PLZzz let the game have more feeder ants and less digging ants and fighter and why in the add its only says 3 food but in the game am in 52 ending food and right now we have Somme much food that is needing a limit if we havent reached it yet and why is the queen like huge it should be a med size.
Really fun we injoyed this game a lot we would recommend it for anyone under ten years old.
