colony. Ant Colony

colony. is a game about watching the whole life of one ant colony.

It begins when a lone queen digs her first chamber underground. Workers are born, the nest grows deeper, and once the colony reaches hundreds of ants, it sends out winged ants every summer. When the queen reaches the end of her life, the colony comes to its end too.

• The ants act on their own. They gather food, tend the eggs and larvae, and dig new chambers. • Seasons, temperature, moisture and predators shape the colony. In winter it waits underground for spring. • There is not much you can do. Change the land around the nest, and give food once every 8 days. • A day in this world is 30 minutes in yours. Time keeps passing while the app is closed. • A queen lives 8 years, or 61 real days. Every colony that ends is kept in the records.

No need to hurry. Leave it on and look in now and then.
