By and large, the Experimental Game is best for the players ego. It's basically playing research and so the emotional investment is next to nil. You don't care if your cyber-insects die, you've discovered something. That sounds easy enough.
Many obstacles can get in the way of even the smallest goal.
Still, it's a challenge. But when you get into the Full Game, then frustrations begin. SimAnt has the usual array of windows one finds in a Maxis game. The Map Window, Behavior Control Window, Caste Control Window, History Window, Information Window, and Status Window. You can keep up on the Caste, Brood, Workers, Soldiers, Queens, Males and larvae in your highly regimented, extremely busy and warlike community.
