Jobs serve as a way to build relationship with your colony/hive/family members. There are a multitude of jobs available, such as gathering resources, patrolling areas, scouting, leading raids, collecting the dead, capturing a new base and more! You will have jobs that you need to fulfill (all the while also working hard to stay alive - I know right, work all week and want a break only to have a 9-5 in your game too? )

Whether you are playing as a social insect or as a "lone"species. Or maybe you like to live life recklessly in the fast lane. For this reason, planning your attacks are very important. You must be careful when fighting as limbs on insects can be ripped off, if you go into combat and lose a leg it might hurt your overall game in the long run. Combat in FTH is skill based, and damage depends on your speed, stats, and which part of the insect you attack. Everything is about balance, so choose wisely.Īs you go about your insect business you will have to fight, kill, run away to chase experience points levelling up as you go. Gaining size may increase your strength but also slightly increase your need for food. There always is however a cost to each advantage.

You can upgrade your stats as you level up: Size, Energy, Strength, Hunger, Thirst to name a few, will increase your chances of survival. However, each time you mate it will cost you energy. The player is also incentivised to mate – gaining species points. This is a key part of the game as when you die you can continue playing the game as your offspring. During the springtime there will be opportunities to mate with the opposite sex, allowing you to build your lineage (or family tree). In FTH there are male and females for each species. Protecting them and helping their population grow will in turn feed you more, but it may also attract more unwanted visitors. For example, as a ladybug you can farm aphids in your base to produce you more food than you can scavenge. In FTH you can “farm” smaller insects for long term sustainable food. Choose from 15+ different insects and experience the FTH world in all its glory. Ants, Termites and Bees using cooperation to take down larger foes, Pray Mantis, Spiders, Beetles for more solo style plays and everything else in between: Ladybugs, Flies, Crickets, and the like. So, you will have to choose your actions wisely and more importantly rest in safe places.Ĭhoose from a large array of exciting characters to play from. Every attack you make, flight you take (queue sting song) or mating to build your family tree will cost you energy. While you are on your quest for survival you will need to manage your energy bar. Survival in FTH is the core gameplay element, and it’s not as easy as it sounds! Eat food you find along your travels from various sources and drink water droplets to prevent your hunger/thirst meters from going too low to prevent death.
