3D Ant Colony Game/RPG

Hey, it would be cool if there was a game where you was born as an ant, and worked in huge landscapes, climbing trees, fighting against huge bugs toghether with lots of other ants, or fighting against another ant colony. It would also be cool if you could level up and gain skills.

uh, maybe this is a weid idea, but anyway it would be fun...

It is fun,Google Sim Ant, Its a good idea, and Sim Ant lacks some of the stuff you have that looks really cool, and it would be awesome in 3D :)

Ehm, nom not like sim ant, In that, you rule over a whole colony (or do you?), in this, it was meant to control a single individual.

or hey... maybe it isn't so bad after all, but best would be a hybrid of these; you control how to build and dig, what to do and all. And at the same time, you can control a single ant, and maybe switch between a couple of them.

MM, the idea is getting more and more game-a-licious! hehe

Where can i download? I searched for "SimAnt Free Download" on google, and checked a few pages, only to find out that i had to pay to download it (and a bunch of other games) "for free".

but, uhm, is it AbandonWare or what? (As it's free)
