Yes, this free edition is in fact free, it is not a demo! it allows you to play online as much as you like, for no fee. There are no time restrictions or expiry dates on this product. The only limitations to this version are to offline play, campaign mode and challenge mode are cut short (dont worry there is enough for you to learn how to play), and skirmish and direct host (LAN) option is unavailable.

And so I bring to you, my first official game release... AntRush!

Slave-Maker Ant |

This colony can only thrive by killing to eat other ants, or by enslaving other ants. The colony is a force to be reckoned with early-game with its purely soldier only colony and monstrous queen. Despite its strong military force this colony often struggles for its survival and must use every one of its dirty tricks to rise as victor. Player Advice: Experienced players only |

In nature the Termites heavyweight guards are so massive they require workers to feed them. The Termites Elite Tunnel Guard is the most powerful soldier of all the species (but it must remain underground with the queen most the time). As a termite your foes sit and dread the idea of what they might find deep in your barricaded nest. Player Advice: Quick to learn, Strong defenses make it good for beginners and deadly for experts |
