About

Anthill is a gorgeous strategy game with an award-winning interface based on the real-world behavior of ants. By drawing pheromone trails, you direct your ground forces to different destinations, working with streams of units rather than individuals.

Similar to a tower defense game, your mission is to protect the hill as wave upon wave of enemy bugs are thrown at you.
