The Story

For years, insect kingdoms fought endless wars for land, resources, and survival. Peace finally came with the formation of B.U.L.B – a united alliance bringing hope to all bugs. But the Ant Kingdom refused unity, isolating themselves… until now.

Without warning, the Ants attacked, seizing control of the biome’s water supply and declaring war on all who opposed them. Now, as the B.U.L.B’s last hope, you must infiltrate their stronghold and uncover the truth behind their rebellion – and the sinister force driving them.
