The players control rival ant colonies. To win the game you must destroy all rival opposing colonies. The game is played on an 8x8 grid, such as a chess board, that represents the backyard of a suburban house. Terrain is randomly placed and consists of sweet spots (food), concrete slabs, dry spots, and covered spots. Each player starts with a colony of ten ants in a corner of the board. A deck of cards is used to resolve combat. Card play also permits a colony to nest to generate more ant units.
