Empires of the Undergrowth is an ant colony management game, in a fast-paced real-time strategy style. The player excavates their nest underground, constructing tunnels and chambers to store food and raise brood. On the surface, the ants claim territory, gather resources, overwhelm fearsome arachnids and clash with other colonies. Nest design, army size, composition and attack timing are key to securing victory.
- Carve out and construct your underground nest to suit your strategy
- Engage in fast-paced colony versus colony combat above ground
- Play as different ant species and explore their unique traits and weaknesses
- Encounter and overpower dangerous beetles, arachnids and other awesome arthropods
- Grow your pet formicarium over time by completing missions
As we head towards a new DLC, community manager Mike shows some of the UI changes coming to the game and talks about why certain things aren\'t in Empires of the Undergrowth.\n\n
\nAlso of note (and highlighted in the vlog), on the day of posting (December 2nd) the Festive Spider level has appeared and will be here throughout the Christmas season! Find it by clicking on the gift that has appeared on the main menu for a special tower defense level starring the hungry spider. He\'s still famished.\n\n[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/28521019/97af7356aefad49a7e6a73f5b4557280f0bd932c.png\"][/img]\nThanks for joining us in 2025 - we\'ll see you in the next newsletter and vlog in 2026!
