Ant Nation

Ant Nation is developed by Konami for the Nintendo consoles: DS and Wii.

Taking the childhood hobby of playing with bugs to a whole new level, Ant Nation allows players to control a colony of ants and lead them through various missions and challenges.

Players will use several different instruments such as magnifying glasses and lasers to train their ants and toughen them up. Making sure their colony is strong enough to take down larger foes such as spiders is a large part of the game.

Because both versions of the game are being released on consoles that support alternate input methods, gestures and touch will be used frequently. Players will use the Wii Remote and stylus on the DS to manipulate the action on screen and use tools such as metal detectors.

Ant Nation will feature 100 standard levels as well as additional challenges and bonus content that is unlocked while playing through the game.IGN: Ant Nation
