Do you have an ant problem? And no-one else can help you? Maybe you can hire the Ant-Exterminator.

Windows Download (Post Jam)



We aim to eliminate your infestation in the most humane way possible: letting the ants do it themselves. Use the tools at your disposal, guide the ants towards the poison and have them bring it back to the nest before they eat all the cake. Wherever they go, they will leave trails behind them for other ants to follow. Be wary of spiders; whatever you do, don't feed them coffee!

Instructions:

Remove all the ant hills before the ants eat too much food, which is easy for the first two levels as they have no food. Click on a tool (located on the right hand side of the screen) to equip it, then click on room to use that tool. Ants try to follow trails, while at the same time laying down their own. The stronger the trail, the more ants will follow it.
