Vodankaya

**(vo-dan-KAI-ah)**

*Shh. Don't say it. Their name is riddled with poisons.*

The drósti have a bad reputation and the Vodankaya are the main reason for it.

A small but infamous family whose name is rarely spoken by commoners and nobles alike. Indeed, even other drósti are loathe to invoke the family's name for fear of being cursed.

They are said to be masters of curses and hexes, necromancers and demon-summoners, kidnappers and murders. When a child goes missing, especially young females, the Vodankaya are the first to blame. Whether these captives are used as slaves, sacrifices to some forest demon, or to raise them as their own is not known. But during cloudy nights of the new moon, children are kept close and inside hearth and hovel for it is said this is when the Vodankaya usually strike.

There are no subfamilies within the Vodankaya. Furthermore, no male Vodankaya has been seen for over a century, and their leader's name is unknown.

Current issues
Halloween Event 2020

Halloween Event 2020 is the first Major Event to take place. It was announced on 18-Oct-2020 on Discord.

## Duration

The event started on 23-Oct-2020 at 0:00 UTC and ended on 2-Nov-2020 at 23:59 UTC, having a duration of 11 days and making it the shortest Major Event.

## About the festivity

Halloween is widely celebrated in a number of countries around the globe on 31-October. It's one of the world’s oldest holidays, derived from ancient festivals and religious rituals. Stereotypical traditions include: costume parties, trick-or-treating, pranks, games, etc.

## Special Creature

Main article: Ghost Mantis

This Event's creature is the Ghost Mantis. It's the first Special variant of the Praying Mantis, having higher stats specially on Attack Rate, which is maxed. It acts as a damage dealer and a sniper on Battles.

It can be attracted twice per day during this Event.

## Activity Bar

The activity bar can be filled with 500 Activity Points that are gotten from the following activities:

 Obtaining Honeydew from Aphid Farms or the Fire Ant Nest.
 Process Pumpkin pieces into food.

## Purchasable Items

### Unlimited Source

The 24-hours Unlimited Source for this Event is the Pumpkin, which is located at the north of the player's Colony. All players get one for free, and it can be purchased unlimited times on the Event Menu with a cost of 550 Gems.

The Pumpkin will only disappear 24 hours after its activation. It's activated by gathering from it, or selecting it as a source. Once activated, the 24-hours timer in the Event menu will start.

Worker ants can gather Pumpkin pieces to process them into food, and Leaves to store them in the Leaf Storage. Seeds can't be gathered from the Pumpkin. It's recommended to log in often as the infinite food allows for quick soldier ant regeneration. It will also allow players to build colony upgrades easily.

Since it's a source of Activity Points, it is recommended to delay its activation by an hour or two after the reset (0:00 UTC), so it can last for two days, allowing players to get 4 Ghost Mantises easily.

## Timer Reductions

The Respawn Timers that were reduced in this event are:

* Red Ants timer, from 12 hours to 6 hours.
* Aphid farms timer, from 6 hours to 3 hours.

## Trivia

* The Pumpkin turns into a Jack-o'-lantern at Night.
Special Creatures

Special creatures can only be found during Events. Currently, they don't have a chance of spawning when attracting creatures with pheromones, but instead are attracted when filling up event bars. They are variants of normal (common, uncommon and rare) creatures.

Currently there are 18 special creatures added to the game. Click the images below to learn more about special creatures.

**Ghost Mantis****Christmas Spider****Paussinae Beetle****Monarch Butterfly****Festive Tiger Beetle****Halloween Pennant****Christmas Beetle****Shocking Pink Dragon Millipede****Orchid Mantis****Emperor Scorpion****Emerald Cockroach Wasp****Skull Spider****Red Costate Tiger Moth****Roseate Skimmer Dragonfly****Flower Chafer Beetle****Manticora Tiger Beetle****Trilobite Beetle****Lugubrious Bombardier Beetle****Antlered Wasp****Christmas Crab**

While most of non-special creatures species are either general or fictitious (real life based), all special creatures have a very specific species from which they take their unique name and design (e.g. Austracantha Minax for Christmas Spider, in contrast to the Tarantula, which is a general concept based on spiders from the Theraphosidae family).
Hostiles

## Introduction

There are several hostiles known across the game, most of which can easily kill the player's ants, aside from other player's ants colony.

For more details, check on the heading link to visit their corresponding page.

### Creatures

Most creatures encountered are hostile to ants, being the only exceptions the Rhinoceros Beetle and the Monarch Butterfly. They spawn 24 hours since the death of the last arthropod, or when attracted by Pheromones in the absence of a creature.

Some creatures will only appear under certain conditions, such as better Pheromones types to attract Golden Creatures.

### Red Ants

Red Ants are generally the NPC equivalent of the player's ant colony. They are generally aggressive to the player's colony and will attack if the colony happens to be in their way. The red ants also will try to attack the colony if few or no soldiers are guarding the outside. Starting colonies will find them a threat, but as the colony becomes stronger, they will be nothing but a stepping stone, provided precautions are done when attacking their colony.

They respawn 12 hours after their queen was killed inside their colony.

### Fire Ants

Fire Ants are a different type of ant. They always appear orange and are sighted guarding Aphid Farm, chasing after any thieves if the farm is conquered.

Their main nest lies at north-west, and requires resources to attack their colony. **You can only bring all your currently living soldier ants into the colony when raiding their nest.**

### Termites

Termites live among the Tree, often relying on Resin as part of their resources. They are hardy like the fire ants, but are more susceptible to be killed. Unlike the ants however, these endlessly spawns from their nest, which is inaccessible (directly), but they can be eliminated for 30 minutes by winning at Co-op Mode.

They also spawn from a crack at the bottom of the tree, which requires utilizing Garrison to ensure any worker ants harvesting the resin do not get murdered while they are exiting the tree with their harvested resin.

### Bees

Flying around their nest, bees are incredibly dangerous to any ants. They are capable of one-shot killing anything that are foreign to their nest, and cannot be killed under any circumstances. However, the player ant can enter the beehive without being killed by the bees, using a temporary bee essence to camouflage itself and go unnoticed by the workers. If the player ant manages to escape before the bee essence runs out, it can bring a reward of Honeydew, Resin, or a piece of Honeycomb to attract a Giant Asian Hornet.
Daily Quests

*See Also: Quests*

Daily quests are little quests the player can do every day to get rewards. The daily quest menu also shows the daily acorn counter.

## How to access

The daily quests are accessible through the "Quests" button, in the "Daily quests" tab.

The "Quests" button will have a green exclamation mark if one or more daily quests are completed, in contrast to the red exclamation mark from the guide Quests.

## Quests

The player only gets 4 daily quests per day, and these involve small activities like winning battles, defeating creatures (on the map only, defeating creatures in battles doesn't count), killing the red ant queen, killing some fire ants or termites, conquering and escorting an aphids convoy, and watching ads.

## Major rewards

After completing the four daily quests, the player can claim a bigger reward of 150  honeydew, 1500  resin and 10  gems.

## Tips

Battles against Dr. Zany count toward the daily quest for battles. These are often easier to win and result in fewer ant losses.

Players must have battle tokens  for the battles to count toward the daily quest.

Both killing and capturing creatures counts toward the creature quest. Pink pheromones are a cheap way to attract creatures for this quest.

Place the garrison at the crack in the tree to easily defeat termites.

The red ants can be killed back to just the queen which results in the red ants still on the map but not much of a threat. This can be used to delay defeating the red ants if it is close to game reset (0:00 UTC) and the major rewards from daily quests are needed quickly.
Update 0.06/Version 0.0644

Version 0.0644 is the fifth update of 0.0640, released 5-Apr-2021, that reduces disconnection issues.

## Bug Fixes

* Reduced issue of players getting disconnected from Co-op.

## Trivia

* Everyone in the lobby must have this version or it won't work.

Update 0.05/Version 0.0599

Version 0.0599 is the 5th update to 0.0590, released on 30-Nov-2020, that fixes bugs.

## Bug Fixes

* Fixed a bug where aphid farm worker ants don't change its skin.
* Fixed a bug when using lavender, ant don't change its color when having a special skin.
* Fixed a bug where skin buttons don't show correctly on some screen resolutions.

## Trivia

* This is the last update for Update 0.05.
Summer Event 2022

The Summer Event 2022 is the 11th Major Event to take place in Pocket Ants, and the 1st annual edition of this event. It was announced on 20-Aug-2022 on Discord.

## Duration

The event began on 26-Aug-2022 at 0:00 UTC and ended on 12-Sep-2022 at 23:59 UTC, having a duration of 18 days.

## About the festivity

This event celebrates the summer months in the northern hemisphere which is where the developer is located.

## Special Creature

Emerald Cockroach Wasp

This event's creature was the Emerald Cockroach Wasp. It's the first special variant of the Asian Giant Hornet, having higher stats on Attack Rate and Health. It also does much higher damage per hit, making the Wasp a much better creature. It acts as a flying attacker, damage dealer and sniper unit on battles.

It could be attracted with a limit of two creatures per day.

## Activity Bar

The activity bar could be filled with 1000 Activity Points that are received from the following activities:

 Processing Pineapple pieces into food.
 Obtaining Honeydew from Aphid Farms only.
 Gathering from Acorns.
 Getting Pheromones by attacking other players or Dr. Zany.
 Watching ads for Battle Tokens.

## Purchasable Items

### Unlimited Source

The 24-hours Unlimited Source for this Event was the Pineapple, which is located like the rest of Unlimited Sources: at the north of the player's Colony, next to the Tree. All players get one for free, and it could be purchased unlimited times on the Event Menu with a cost of 650 Gems.

The Pineapple disappears 24 hours after activation. It's activated by gathering from it or selecting it as a source. Once activated, the 24-hours timer in the Event menu will start.

Worker ants can gather Pineapple pieces to process them into food, and Leaves to store them in the Leaf Storage. Seeds can't be gathered from the Pineapple. It's recommended to log in often as the infinite food allows for quick soldier ant regeneration. It will also allow players to build colony upgrades easily.

Since it's a source of activity points, it is recommended to delay its activation by an hour or two after the game reset (0:00 UTC), so it can last for two days, allowing players to get 4 creatures easily.

### Ant Skins

This Event included **three** new, limited summer-themed ant skins: the swimsuit skin, Emerald Cockroach Wasp skin, and watermelon skin which could only be purchased during the Event with 500 gems each one in the Ant Skins shop. (The skins will last beyond the duration of the event, only purchasing is limited to the event).

## Daily Rewards

This event included Daily Rewards that players could claim by logging in every day. Skipping a day did not reset the progress.

## Timer Reductions

The Respawn Timers that were reduced in this event are:

* Red Ants timer, from 12 hours to 6 hours.
* Aphid farm timer, from 6 hours to 4 hours.

## Visual changes

In this Event, acorns received a special green texture.

## Trivia

* This is the first edition of this event and the first event that does not feature a known festivity but instead celebrates a time of year.
Fungus

Fungus is an important resource in the game.

## General Information

Fungus is also known as food in the game. When first starting the game, fungus is the first thing that the player ant must get. It continues to be the most important resource throughout the game. It is stored in the Food Processing Chamber in the anthill.

Fungus needs to be fed to the queen in order to get more workers and soldiers. It is also needed if the player ant is killed by a hostile entity such as creatures or ants on the main map. When a player is killed on the main map or inside the beehive the cost to be reborn is 10% of the amount of stored fungus that the player currently has (there is no cost if the player is killed during a battle, co-op, or while inside the Fire Ant Nest). It can be a very costly mistake if the player is killed while the Food Processing Chamber is full.

Even though it does not cost much to breed new workers, the process takes a very long time since the queen has to be fed one fungus at a time. This can take half an hour or longer if all workers have been killed.

## Source

Fungus is made by collecting a leaf bit from the leaf source somewhere on the map. It is carried into the Food Processing Chamber where it is turned into fungus and can then be fed to the queen. Workers can be set to collect leaves for fungus. Workers will not move leaves from the Leaf Chamber into the Food Processing Chamber but the player ant can do this if needed.

The Food Processing Chamber level is what determines the leaf source amount.

Fungus can be set for offline gathering and can be found in acorns scattered around the map. It can also be rewarded for winning battles and as part of the daily reward. Additionally, completing quests and daily quests can reward small amounts of fungus.

## Uses

Fungus is used to upgrade several chambers in the game. These chambers are: Leaf Storage Chamber, Seed Storage Chamber and Honeydew Chamber.

The main use of fungus in the game is breeding soldiers after battles or attacking hostiles on the main map. If all soldiers are lost in a single battle, this can be a huge drain on fungus reserves.

The next biggest use of fungus in the game is donations toward clan bonuses. Fungus is one of three resources needed to activate clan bonuses such as increased soldier speed. These bonuses require huge amounts of resources and a combined effort from all clan members in order to sustain.

## Trivia

The food chamber in the game is based on the habits of Fungus-growing ants. Fungus-growing ants comprise all the known fungus-growing ant species, such as **Leaf Cutter ants**, participating in ant–fungus mutualism. They are known for cutting grasses and leaves, carrying them to their colonies' nests, and growing fungi on them on which they later feed.
Quests

## General information

Quests are a game mechanic that helps to teach players about the game and rewards them with resources for completing tasks. These rewards also aid the player in upgrading their colony.

The Quests menu is accessed through the Quests button on the right side of the screen. This menu also has the Daily Quests tab for additional quests that are only available for 24 hours from game reset at 0:00 UTC.

Quests are introduced at the beginning of the game during the Starter Tutorial when Dr. Zany explains how to play the game.

When a quest item is completed a red exclamation mark appears on the quest button. Players can tell which quest is completed due to the Claim button being highlighted. Once a quest is claimed, the rewards are added instantly to the corresponding chamber. If the chamber is full when the quest is claimed, the reward will be lost. It is best to wait to claim quest rewards until they are needed so they can't be stolen by attackers.

Completed quests are hidden after the game is reloaded. Players can see completed quests by enabling the option in the Settings menu.

## Trivia

* The total rewardsof 129 quests are: 380 gems, 1375 food, 370 leaves, 1545 seeds, 4360 creature parts, 31275 resin.
* Average rewards per quest: 2.94 gems, 13.34 food, 3.59 leaves, 15 seeds, 33.79 creature parts, 242,44 resin.
* An easy way to complete the quest for defeating 1million termites is to leave the garrison at the crack in the tree while playing the game.

Creature Event: Monarch Butterfly

The Creature Event: Monarch Butterfly is the fourth Creature Event in Pocket Ants.

## General information

The Creature Event: Monarch Butterfly, also known as a mini-event, is a short event that is intended to give players the chance to get Special Creatures from the past or fuse the ones they have. Unlike major events, these don't include unlimited sources, daily rewards, re-spawn timer reductions, ant skins nor visual changes of any type. Getting creatures in these Events is harder because the red ants and aphid farms re-spawn time isn't reduced, thus they won't give as much activity points per day as they do on major events.

## Editions

There have been two editions of this Event, each occurring after the Easter Events.

Settings

Settings helps your gameplay in different ways like any other game settings and shows the version of the game you are playing.

## **Settings Options**

There are many Options in the settings menu:

The **In-game Music** option (On/Off)

The **Zoom capability** option (On/Off)

The **Joystick control** option (On/Off)

The **In-game Sound Effects** option (On/Off)

The **Show Completed Quests** option (On/Off)

The **Language** option helps you choose the language of your choosing for the In-game text, there are currently 9 languages to choose from.

The **Reset Progress** option. **NOTE**: Doing this will result in your in-game progress lost, you should only do this when you feel the need to do it. For example, if you have gotten stuck in the game in a situation where you are a low level player and the red ant colony or a creature are blocking all the food sources, it might be hard to fight them off due to low amount of resources and low level ants. At that point it would be better to just start over.

The **Discord Invitation** button. Children under 13 cannot join.

The **Confirm** bar. It confirms things you have edited in your settings.

The **Save and Exit** button. Saves the progress you have made and closes the game.
Tips and Tricks

*(See the FAQ for answer to common questions.)*

*(See the Joining a Clan FAQ for getting started with a clan.)*

## General

1. When the red ants keep bringing trouble, kill all the ants except for the queen to prevent them from being a problem for a while.
2. Before you summon a creature, you should make all workers stop working by lowering all tasks for workers in the Workers tab to 0. If you don't and the creature spawns near the workers, then you're going to experience some fatalities, and those aren't very good.
3. Remember to always stock up on fungus when you plan on doing something involving soldier ants (eg. invading fire ant nest, red ant colony, PvP, aphid farm conquering and convoy delivery to breed more soldier ants.
4. Remember, there is a retreat button to quickly escape AoE attacks from creatures (mainly rhinoceros beetles).
5. When entering the BeeHive Maze make sure to turn off your HuD, this helps you consentrate more due to there not being a lot of things blocking your screen.
6. This is mainly for beginners after you first get resin, make sure you save for the upgrade of beehive time. The reason for this is because, later on in the game, Resin farming will be replaced by mainly Beehive Resin Farming which makes you 10k resin a day!
7. This is around your Creature Army and Attracting. If you are struggling to get your first rare, an easy trick is to grind a bunch of pink pheromones and then dedicate 1 hour to summoning and attracting at dusk and night. Another thing is Dusk tends to give you Bombers more often and Night tends to give Rhinos more often.

## PvP

1. Use Tarantulas in PvP if slow enemies(like bombardier beetle)are distracted while fighting tanks, whilst the Tarantula will keep biting it(make sure the tarantula is guarded by soldier)until it dies, remember that if the tarantula didn't take it's first bite yet you might need to wait for him to bite the enemy.
2. Only deploy dragonflies outside for defense or while attacking another player as they cannot fly inside (for obvious reasons) and will only act like a tarantula or mantis.
3. Always protect your soldier ants while attacking as the red ant colony will notice when you are running low on soldier ants and will try to attack your colony.
4. Protect low-health creatures like scorpions, and dragonflies as they are vital to attack other players.
5. If your soldier ants are far away from you when raiding and anthill (due to clicking disband), if you click recruit and click 'attack' to attack a creature while your soldiers are still far away, your soldiers will come to you but will not attack the creature, in this situation you must click 'retreat' and 'attack' again. To prevent this, be sure to click attack when your soldiers are close to you.
Frog (creature)

Frog Creature

*For the Frog boss see Main Article: Frog (boss)*

Frog is the second Legendary creature to be introduced to the game. Frog has a slow attack but deals a large amount of damage that can kill flying creatures in a single hit.

## General Information

The Frog is added as a one star creature and can be fused into higher star levels.

The frog does not give body parts since it can't be killed on the main map. Once added to the army it can be discarded.

## Game description

Frogs are cold-blooded amphibians and can live on land and in freshwater. Adult frogs can jump with their legs. They have long tongues that they use to catch bugs. They make a sound called croak. Their habitat is distributed all over the world.

## Stats

Main article: Creature Stats
The frog has very high health and a medium attack rate.

It can be upgraded to a max of 20% per stat in the Creature Lab.

## Obtaining

The frog can only be acquired by earning points to fill the Co-op Activity Bar. Points are awarded for winning a Frog Pond co-op. Only one point can be added each day. Gems can be used to reset the daily co-op limit to get more than two activity points per day. It takes a minimum of 10 days to fill the activity bar if gems are not used.

Once the bar is filled there is a button to add the frog to your army. There is no wait time for the frog to be added but the player must have an available creature storage slot.

There is a very rare chance to have a golden frog added to your army instead of a regular one. The actual percent chance is not known.

## PvP

 File:Frog Creature Damage Area.png  Frog is ignored by the Venus fly trap and it will not attack the Venus fly trap on its own.

File:FrogAttackLong.gif

## Trivia

* A single frog could be acquired in one day. A player would need to spend a lot of gems (it costs 450 gems to reset frog co-op, so it would cost 4,050 gems to reset 9 times to get a frog in a single day).
* The frog is the first creature that is a vertebrate. All other creatures in the game so far have been arthropods which are invertebrates (an animal with no backbone). This makes the frog the most unique creature added to the game.
* Frog was added to the game with the Frog Pond co-operative on 9-Jan-2024 as part of the Garden Update part II v0.0891 (although the first version the Frog co-op was actually playable was v0.0897). Additionally the Frog Pond co-op had multiple test phases prior to the real release so Ariel could balance and alter the way the fight functioned as well as fixing various bugs.
Rare Creatures

Rare creatures are very difficult to attract. Attracting them depends on the time of day and some require specific weather conditions or a specific item to be attracted. There is a better chance of attracting them with higher ranking pheromones. Platinum and diamond pheromones have the highest chance of attracting rare creatures.

Manticora Tiger Beetle

*For the normal variant, see Tiger Beetle.*

The Manticora Tiger Beetle is the 16th special creature to be added into the game.

## General Information

Manticora Tiger Beetles have more health than golden Tiger Beetles would. They have max attack rate and speed and move much faster compared to a regular tiger beetle.

When they spot an enemy, they will lock onto it for a third of a second and then run towards it.

It is **highly recommended** not to kill these creatures.

## Game Description

The Manticora is a highly voracious predator, preying on small arthropods such as crickets. The larvae patiently wait for prey to come towards them while the adults actively pursue prey.

## Stats

Main article: Creature Stats

Manticora Tiger Beetles have very good health, and they are very fast with an insanely good attack speed. They have the same attack rate and health stats as the Emperor Scorpion.

They can be upgraded a max of 60% each stat in the Creature Lab.

## Obtaining

### Defeating

The player ant recruits soldier ants and send them in to attack. There is no way to prevent some soldiers from dying so be ready. It is best to approach slowly so that the soldiers stay around the player ant. If the player rushes in ahead of the soldiers, the Manticora Tiger Beetle will target the player and quickly attack.

## Battles

Damage dealer. Like a scorpion, but faster speed and attacks at a faster rate.

The extremely fast movement speed and very high attack rate are what make this creature so deadly. It can take out attacking ants very quickly or snipe a player ant in the middle of battle. It can also deal a large amount of damage to enemy creatures. The high health means that this creature can take a lot of hits and still keep attacking.

### In Platinum/Diamond League

The Manticora Tiger Beetle is one of the most ideal creatures for this league, due to its high health and the high amount of damage it deals against other creatures along with its speed. The only weakness is that attackers can easily paralyze and wipe out the Manticora Tiger Beetle with chrysanthemum.

## Trivia

* The Manticora Tiger Beetle is based on the ***Manticora latipennis.***
Legendary Creatures

Legendary creatures cannot be attracted by using Pheromones. Currently, the only way to acquire a legendary creature is to complete Crab Beach co-op map 15 times or Frog Pond co-op map 10 times. Legendary creatures have enhanced stats which make them excellent in armies for all levels of players.

Body Parts

Body parts are a useful resource in the game.

## General Information

Body parts, otherwise known as creature parts, are the body parts of creatures. Body parts are stored in the Body Parts Chamber. Body parts can be set for offline gathering.

## Source

To create a source of body parts, players must defeat a creature and select 'Kill', which creates a corpse. Select the corpse as a source and set workers to extract the parts. Creatures give between 20 and 80 body parts depending on the rarity of the creature. Each creatures' page has strategy information on the best method to defeat them.

The player will get two messages, one when the player sources the corpse to be harvested and one when the corpse runs out.

Message when selecting a sourceMessage when resources run out
The other ways to get body parts are:

* Body parts are awarded as part of the Daily Log in Reward. Players receive 30 body parts on Day 3 and 50 body parts on Day 7.
* Body parts are awarded for completing certain quests and daily quests.
* Successfully completing a Crab Beach co-op awards 100 body parts.
* Killing a vinegaroon also awards body parts (roughly 4% of the max amount of body parts chamber).
* The best source of creature body parts is battles where the league bonuses can result in hundreds of body parts from a single battle.

## Uses

Body parts are needed to fuse creatures. The cost goes up with each star level.

The most important use of body parts is to upgrade the Creatures Chamber and Resin Chamber. The Resin Chamber should be prioritized because it takes the longest and directly affects how high the player can upgrade the Queen's Chamber. The Creatures Chamber should not be upgraded beyond level 4 unless the Resin Chamber has been fully upgraded.

The biggest use of creature parts, after upgrading the chambers, is to upgrade creatures in the Creature Lab. Players can upgrade the health, attack rate and speed of the creatures they own using body parts  and gems . These are permanent boosts that can help with battles and defense.

## Strategy

Body parts can be difficult to acquire in the large amounts needed for certain upgrades. Below are some tips for collecting without them being stolen to attacking players.

Do big upgrades over one or two days, preferably on a weekend to take advantage of the vinegaroon. Battle constantly, exiting battles or leaving at 50% if the player does not have many body parts. **Do not log out** in between playing sessions as any parts stolen will not be taken from the total until logging back in. In between battles, attract as many creatures as possible, collecting their parts even if they are a rare creature.

Save body parts bonuses from quests until right before upgrading. They are great to use for the last few hundred needed to complete an upgrade.

Christmas Beetle

*For the normal variant, see Rhinoceros Beetle.*

The Christmas Beetle is the 7th special creature to be added into the game.

## General Information

They have a lot more health than a rhino beetle and a bit more speed.

They are neutral creatures and will not attack unless something is attacking it.

It is **highly recommended** not to kill these creatures.

## Description

Genus Anoplognathus. Christmas beetles are large members of the scarab family. They typically have elytra that are dark or light brown, or green, while some species have a green-yellow iridescence.

## Stats

Main article: Creature Stats

Christmas Beetles are pretty tanky even when they are 1 star, although they are a bit faster. At 4 stars it has the highest health of any creature in the game, higher than a 4-star rhinoceros, golden 4-star bombardier and golden 4-star rhinoceros.

It can be upgraded to a max of 20% of each stat in the Creature Lab.

## Obtaining

### Defeating

When fighting the beetle, send soldier ants to attack, then when its body turns red, click 'retreat' and the soldier ants will go out of the beetle's range before it attacks. Then click 'attack' again. Do the same over and over until it is defeated (make sure to keep out of its attack range, as being caught in its devastating attack results in annihilation).

## Battles

Christmas beetle, like the rhino beetle, is often used as a tank in attacking and defense. When attacking, it can be placed in the middle of enemy creatures to lead them away from an area or distract them to allow attacking creatures to attack without taking damage themselves. It can also be place near enemy soldiers to take huge amounts of them in one swipe.

In defense, it can be attacked for a long time and will either distract enemy creatures or lead them through a swarm of ants or to the Venus fly trap.

Good as support vs creatures, although it has a lot of health.

## Trivia

* The Christmas Beetle is a fusion of **Anoplognathus viridiaeneus** (body) and **Lamprima adolphinae** (mandibles).
* This creature has the most health in the game tied with the flower chafer beetle.
Update 0.06/Version 0.0610

Version 0.0610 is the first update to 0.0610, released 27-Dec-2020, that fixes bugs.

## Bug Fixes

* Reduced these issues related to unstable connections:
	+ Starting a chamber upgrade sometimes took resources but didn't show as upgrading after restarting the game.
	+ After completing a chamber upgrade, sometimes next level starts upgrading automatically.
