An antagonizingly good game.

Konami returns to Wiiware with another semi-strategy game. This time instead of reactively fending off crabs, you’ll be proactively leading a nation of ants in a war of senseless aggression. Finally, those ladybugs will get what they deserve. But is..

Sounds like a Pikmin style game. I will keep my eye on this one.

Reminds me of a PC download game I like; I think it's called "Ants". You have to build up your colony and take over the town. In that game you battle bugs too and people!

So... anyone actually try this yet? Sim games always intrigue me.. but not enough to buy them usually :P

EDIT: Still no impressions? Googled and found an E3 video of it I think. It looks to be more in-depth than I originally thought. I hope people don't avoid this game because there is no promotional video for it..

This game is actually pretty fun, But it just throws you in there, so you have to test around with the controls. Once you get those down, It's an amazing game.
