Really good game and reminds me of Clash of Clans but with ants. And the pixel art style is amazing. I just want one thing to be added to the game. I want a replay thingy. Like in clash of clans where you can view past attacks and also view your defence when you get attacked by other players. I would love to see that in this game. Overall I like this game 11/10 no cap it's a fact.

I really liked the concept, but the game is totally unplayable to new players. Firstly, let's talk about matchmaking, 1 of the earlier quests is to have a battle. Yes, you can challenge the doctor, but his 1st challenge is the only one completable. Other than that, you're sent to attack someone who is way overpowered than you, who is impossible to win. It seems that to get anywhere in the season, you would have to put money in every month, basically making this a subscription based game.

This game is great! I love the art so much, I could probably open the game and stare at it without pressing "start" for hours! The game itself is sometimes a little rage-inducing, but I think that's mostly my skill and my phone's skill. Otherwise, the game is great and so is the progression. I would advise NEVER to turn power saving on. For some, this can cause Pocket Ants to crash your device. I was pushed away from the game initially for this reason.

Pocket Ants is a good game, and it has a lot of potential, but some things need to be changed. There should be no chance of failure when fusing creatures, as it is pretty much pay to win because even though I worked hard to get THREE red scorpions, I was reduced to one because they all failed to fuse, and it was over a 70% to be successful. And fusing 3 star creatures is almost impossible! 7% chance! It pretty much requires pay to win.

Its a great time killer that offers a casual yet strategic gameplay experience. It’s easy to pick up and play at your own pace, focusing more on tactics and long-term strategy than on realism or simulation. The progression is long-term, upgrade skills and abilities over time. It doesn't bombard you with ads—you choose if and when to watch them. Con: Need to have good connection as rewards are cloud based. If you lose connection at a bad time may lead to lost reward. For me is rare, no biggie.

I give this game a 5 star. It is fyn and addictive and over all the Devs did a really good job on this game. It also not filled with ads. I actually havent watched a single ad. Which makes me super happy. There is however a few things i believe should be looked at. 1. The creatures need to spawn more freaquently. Maybr only allow for people to capture one creature a day. But having the ability to fight them and then the option to collect there parts would be cool. Ran out of review space.
