As long as the yellow tiles is reachable by the workers and there are workers in the nest group, they will eventually do it. The cyan area, which represents hard rock, is not diggable so it acts as boundary of the underground.Ĭlicking on a tile in the diggable area turns it yellow, indicating that this tile needs to be digged out. Because the game uses hexagon grid, you can see hexagon tiles light up when you hover your cursor over the diggable area. When you dig to the areas with undergound marks, the entire hidden chambers get excavated immediately and all enemies inside are released in your nest. These marks can move, which indicates that the corresponding enemies are moving underground. The stronger the creatures are, the bigger the marks get.

Hidden food is represented by its own silhouette. White question marks represent harmless enemies and red exclamation marks represent aggressive enemies. If you unfortunately don't have any food or workers left, a queen worker will hatch for free to help revive the colony.Įnemies which are hidden in underground chambers show up as marks on top of the black soil. The seven queen workers can do anything that normal workers can do. You cannot build, delete or upgrade queen chamber tiles.

The queen chamber tiles act as both brood tiles and food store tiles, which can hold 10 food each.

You usually start a game with a queen, three workers and some food in a seven-tile underground chamber.
