unlabelledView post →The recent Empire of the Ants is *okay*, but not very AntsCanada. Empires of the Undergrowth is slightly better, as the context of the game is a lab setting; Still an RTS though So maybe not what you're wanting
unlabelledView post →Funny thing is that this IS a remake of an ant RTS from 2000. Also based on a book. www.mobygames.com/game/47286/e... And along with Combatants from UFO 50, it's the THIRD ant strategy game released this year, as Empires of The Undergrowth left early access recently. This is how we get ants???
