Isometric action game by Sandy White
The briefing
Ant Attack is an action and arcade game developed by Sandy White and published by Quicksilva Ltd. It is set in the walled city of Antescher, where giant ants pursue the player.
Players choose to control either a boy or a girl and must enter the city to rescue their captured significant other. Grenades can be thrown to defend against the ants, but the rescue is only complete once both characters escape the city. The scenario then begins again with the hostage in a different, more difficult-to-reach location.
The game was released for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum and later converted to the Commodore 64 in 1984. It is recognized as one of the early isometric 3D games.
