Gameplay

Anteater is a create your own maze-style game similar to Dig Dug. The player controls an ant that needs to collect food near the house in the upper left-hand corner of the screen and carry it to the nest in the opposite corner. The play creates tunnels in the dirt as the ant moves through. Anteaters await above ground to catch and eat the player's ants once they've reached the surface. Anteaters can also access tunnels in the dirt once they've been created.

The player has several defense mechanisms to combat the anteaters.
