Empires of the Undergrowth: Game Overview

Empires of the Undergrowth is a captivating PC game that allows you to step into the tiny shoes of an ant colony. This game is available for free download on our platform, SteamRIP. The game is a blend of real-time strategy and management, where you are tasked with the survival and growth of your ant colony.

The game starts with your queen ant establishing her home under a decaying log. She is defenseless and her survival, along with her first offspring, depends on your strategic skills. Your first task is to secure food sources while keeping an eye out for other creatures lurking in the undergrowth.

You will be responsible for designing and expanding your nest underground, creating intricate tunnels and chambers for food storage and brood rearing. On the surface, your ants will claim territory, gather resources, and engage in battles with formidable spiders and rival colonies. The success of your colony depends on your nest design, army size, composition, and the timing of your attacks.

The game is narrated from the viewpoint of a documentary filmmaker studying the ants, providing insightful commentary on the colony’s activities and the world beyond the undergrowth. The primary game mode, Formicarium, allows you to control a unique colony of DNA-harvesting ants. These ants can assimilate the traits of their enemies, and you can upgrade them by completing various missions.
