The video game Ant Simulator aims to create a realistic simulation of ant life. The player controls a simulated ant colony, which is viewed in an overhead view. Each player controls one ants, producing drones and young queens to spread the ant colony throughout a single square on the map. Success in the game is determined by the number of black colonies eliminated and the number of red colonies driven out.
The game features several species of ants, colony management, resource gathering, and attacks on other ants. The game is also fully compatible with VR, which will make the experience more immersive. It is currently being developed using Unity 5 and will include VR support. The developers have provided a substantial look at the game in action and discussed aspects like lighting and pollen. The developers hope to release the game sometime in 2015. The developer hopes to launch the game by the end of 2016.
The game was inspired by the study of ant colonies by E. O. Wilson. The game was released for Amiga, PC, Macintosh, and the Super NES. The Super NES version has eight scenarios that differ from the PC version. Whether or not this variation is a worthy purchase depends on your budget and how much time you want to spend playing the game. If you don't have much money, you can even play the game online.
