Comments on Pocket Ants: Colony Simulator for Android
★★★★☆Gergő Szente· Jul 29, 2026
This game has really good potention, but it's limited by being a free mobile game. The idea and execution is actually really good, but a lot of the gameplay eventually gets wasted away on waiting times and in game purchases that feel very out of place when seen next to how much care was put into the gameplay loop and progression.
★★★★★Grace Arthur· Aug 9, 2026
I really enjoy pocket ants (really good game) but Ariel games if you can add an update that there is a spin wheel every day once a day that has every creature on it and when it lands on a creature you can go defeat it to capture or kill it or if you have 400 gems you already have the option to capture or kill it

Update a multiplayer clan based game like lords mobile lol. Game killers, pay to win, wait to play (energy based) and games turning into clan based garbage. Was a great game needed more content now it's not playable just a joke how they went from setting cool and original to a point to this dramatic and terrible clan based game style. Well rip was fun while it lasted happy I haven't touched it since 2020.
★☆☆☆☆Prince marvicely Toralba· Jul 24, 2026
it's good but if I reach 7 ants the queen ant wouldn't get feed sooo I rate 1/5

Ariel is so damn greedy and arrogant. He charges money for a donated as if 100 m+ people play this game, I doubt if there is even a million active players. And of course bugs, a lot of bugs, every new feature with no fail starts with a bug (e.g. recent poison dart frog). Workers can't run in some kind of background. In every game if workers collect resources, and you go in a battle or smth workers continue to collect, but not in this case.
