How to Play Ant Nation
Quick start
Follow the opening guidance and locate the colony, food and mission crates. Use collectors to gather food, then prepare fighters for the first mission objective. Check the colony view whenever a hazard needs attention.
Controls
Use the stylus to choose tools, select ant groups and place target points. Ants act after receiving those indirect orders. Use the screen-switch control to inspect the colony; shoulder-button filters help display particular types of ants.
Ant Nation — About this game
Your colony needs food, space and ants prepared for the dangers outside. Send collectors to resources, develop the nest and train resistance to fire, water and poison before tackling enemy insects. Mission crates lead to specific objectives for your fighters. Orders work through groups and target points rather than direct control of one ant, while problems inside the colony can interrupt the work above ground.
