The ants have several different classes of ants. With those classes, the player can do different things in the world or the hive. The colony has different rooms: Lab, Farm, Armory, Queens chamber, Botanical gardens etc.

For the most part, Ants have their own AI with auto-attacking enemies, similar to Necromancer’s corpses and ghosts in Diablo III. Still, as it works in Diablo, the Player can aim their Ants by selecting and applying skills at a certain location in the vicinity (depending on what the skill does). Ants almost serve as Scientist’s bodyguards and follow her, whilst the Player controls the Scientist's movement only.
