Synopsis

CBS Software produced this game for Atari home computers, among others.

The player controls a white ant, which must infiltrate an enemy anthill to defeat the 3 other ants. Both the player and enemy ants have the ability to lay eggs, and if killed, they will hatch again with a new egg. If the player is killed when no viable eggs are available, the game is over. The goal is to kill the 3 enemy ants due to environmental hazards, while eliminating the eggs they lay, so they don't respawn. Dangers include flooding, which will kill all the ants at the bottom of the screen, and an anteater which will eat any creature it can lay its tongue on. When an enemy ant dies without an egg on the screen, it is placed in the ant trap in the center of the screen. When all 3 ants are eliminated, the player moves to a more difficult level. There are 6 different mazes available. The player starts with 40 eggs and receives bonus points after each stage based on how many eggs they have left.
