GOTHENBURG - September 13, 2011 - Image & Form International just revealed the their latest game, Anthill, a real-time strategy game with accessible controls based on the real-world behavior of ants. By drawing pheromone trails, you direct your ground forces to different destinations, working with streams of units rather than individuals.

  • Eat what you kill. Slay a bug with your soldiers, then collect the tasty carcass with your workers!
  • Surgical strikes. Simply tap the ground anywhere to send a bomber ant to perform an air raid. Send a dozen bombers to decimate an entire insect horde - satisfaction guaranteed!
  • Survival of the fittest. It's not only You vs The World. Insects will attack each other too. Use this to your advantage by pitting them against each other!
  • Progression. Upgrade your different troops with new abilities between missions!
Swedish Image & Form isn’t your new kid on the block. With the award-winning Josephine PC/Mac franchise as a foundation, the company went on to produce SteamWorld Tower Defense for the Nintendo DSi in July 2010, which became IGN's top pick that month. Image & Form now focuses on mobile gaming.

Anthill is currently in the final stages of beta testing and we are still accepting external testers. The game is slated for release in early October 2011, and will be available for iPhone 3GS/iPad 1 (or newer) as a universal app at $2.99.  

A trailer will be available shortly. For more information, visit www.anthillgame.com or email contact@imageform.se.
