But this is no easy task, even for the mighty ant. Enemies lurk around every corner, and it is up to you to hold them back. Command your legions of ants and fight your way through the forest floor all in the name of the queen. Will you fulfill your role and successfully expand the mighty ant empire, or will you be another nameless drone lost in the cycle?</p><p><strong>Gameplay</strong></p><p>Players get to experience the world from a third person view of a mighty scouting ant. Players will complete quests and command legions of ants to gather resources, attack and defend against enemies, and expand the might ant empire. Players will essentially pick up missions, platform across the wilderness, and command units to attack enemies or gather resources. </p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/churapereviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/KNjfDdzA.jpeg?ssl=1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><p><strong>Review</strong></p><p><em><a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/2287330/Empire_of_the_Ants/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Empire of Ants</a> </em>does not work on the Steam Deck, at least not without some tinkering. This isn’t a deal breaker, but I would keep away if the Steam Deck is your main source of gaming. </p><p>When booting up <em>Empire of Ants, </em>players will be greeted with a beautiful world and design. The graphics and art in this game are beautiful, and I spent a lot of time on exploration because of it. The combat animation for the ants is pretty good, but there is some jank. Ants other insects will randomly fly out in every direction. Other than that, the sounds, the plants, and ants all look really good. </p><p>The game itself performs well, with a few performance issues that can be a bit hard to ignore. Sometimes the ant doesn’t move in the direction you want it because it starts climbing a random branch you didn’t notice, and other times the camera doesn’t respond how you need it to. It doesn’t make the game unplayable, but they do get in the way of the immersion. </p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/churapereviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/5G2U00An.png?ssl=1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><p>The gameplay is where this game becomes a difficult sell. The game works well, but the loop is a little repetitive. If you’re looking for a competitive RTS about ants, you might get it from multiplayer, but you won’t get it from the story. The game feels a little easier than your traditional RTS, which is fine for the casual or kid, but not for the veteran looking to pad their library. I am terrible at RTS games and found this game too easy. A lot of the game does feel like an ant platformer, which is fine, but not what some people are looking for. </p><p>This game is cute, and has some cool ideas, but I would wait for a sale. I think the gameplay is a little too repetative to be worth the $40 and most people looking to play this as their RTS will be disappointed. <em>Empire of Ants</em> isn’t a bad game, it just doesn’t do enough to earn its price. </p><p>You can buy <em>Empire of Ants </em>on on <a href="https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/empire-of-the-ants/9P82CBM74SRG" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Xbox</a>, <a href="https://store.playstation.com/en-us/concept/10007652/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">PlayStation</a>, and PC via <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/2287330/Empire_of_the_Ants/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Steam</a> and <a href="https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/empire-of-the-ants-ffcba5" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Epic Games</a> for $39.99, but I would wait for a sale. </p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJhqX21idBk&amp;ab_channel=IGN" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJhqX21idBk&amp;ab_channel=IGN</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/2024/" target="_blank">#2024</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/ants/" target="_blank">#ants</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/blog/" target="_blank">#blog</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/blogger/" target="_blank">#blogger</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/blogging/" target="_blank">#blogging</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/empire-of-ants/" target="_blank">#empireOfAnts</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/entertainment/" target="_blank">#entertainment</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/epic-games/" target="_blank">#epicGames</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/game-review/" target="_blank">#gameReview</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/gaming/" target="_blank">#gaming</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/gaming-blog/" target="_blank">#gamingBlog</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/internet/" target="_blank">#internet</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/meida/" target="_blank">#meida</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/playstation/" target="_blank">#playstation</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/real-time-strategy/" target="_blank">#realTimeStrategy</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/review/" target="_blank">#review</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/rts/" target="_blank">#rts</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/steam/" target="_blank">#steam</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/video-game-review/" target="_blank">#videoGameReview</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/watch/" target="_blank">#watch</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/wildlife/" target="_blank">#wildlife</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/wordpress/" target="_blank">#wordpress</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/writing/" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://churapereviews.com/tag/xbox/" target="_blank">#xbox</a></p>
