Please kindly let us know how it is. I know it's pretty, but is it fun? 
I didn't like the original game back in Y2K/2001: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empire_of_the_Ants_%28video_game%29. 
Funny, the company gave me a free retail copy back then! They should 
give me this one and a better video card/PC. ;) Did anyone play that one?
