You can upgrade them by playing one-off missions, sometimes with your home colony and sometimes with other ant species. The primary game mode in early access is Formicarium, where you take ownership of a home colony of unique DNA-harvesting ants as they work to assimilate the desirable traits of their foes. After my formicarium successfully defends against all the predators (spiders, other ants) I get no notification that the challenge is over and my game will just sit there with no changes (waited 20 minutes on it). Missions are narrated from the perspective of a documentary film maker studying the ants, who offers intelligent insight into the goings-on of the colony and the undergrowth beyond. Im running into a problem where when I finish the challenge, nothing happens. Nest design, army size, composition and attack timing are key to securing victory.
On the surface, the ants claim territory, gather resources, overwhelm fearsome arachnids and clash with other colonies. The player excavates their nest underground, constructing tunnels and chambers to store food and raise brood. Empires of the Undergrowth is an ant colony management game, in a fast-paced real-time strategy style.
