Guide Anthony the Ant through mazes of underground tunnels after a successful picnic raid. By drawing a line with your finger you guide Anthony where he needs to go. The only rule is you can't cross the line, so there's no going back once you've drawn your path. The game lures you into a false sense of ease with some simple levels to start but soon gets harder the deeper you go. The mazes vary from level to level and also have different objectives, from the classic start to end maze to collecting items stolen from a picnic. Later Anthony's friends join him and you have to guide multiple ants around the maze, each with their own objectives. The app uses a timer system that requires that you wait 30 minutes to get new lives.
