A humorous tale filled with many experiences and activities to engage and entertain you. The gameplay loop is satisfying and fun, and the knowledge you learn from this game transfers to other, lesser "games" with the same stolen idea, trying to piggyback like a little child on the success of the supreme Swarm Queen. Swarm Queen is an experience few will regret, and the lack of storage calls for all device users to play it. The game is simple and complex, with intricrite strategies to progress and gain achievements. Once you have completed Swarm Queen, there is only an increasing slope ahead of you for the future, with each and every level of Swarm Queen being a step to guide you to the top.

I love this game. I've played it on and off for years. More strategy is needed than you might think. I'm so glad achievements were added :')

Fun little game. Like flash games from old days. Time wise, you can complete all missions and challenges within 10 hours.

A sweet and simple-ish strategy game that is quite the bang for your buck (and your computer space). For a price of only 7 and a half dollars and a memory storage so small you might as well say it takes up no space, you get a very solid strategy game that gives you a lot more hours for what you gave to have it. Its overall content could probably give you at least 15-20 hours worth of enjoyable stuff to do (and thats if you just want to be constantly fed new content, taking the time to appreciate certain game modes or get achievements would raise the count by quite a bit), so its quite a steal and its not a large time commitment either (unlike say Baldur's Gate 3 or Elden Ring, though I have nothing against those kinds of games). Swarm Queen is an unusual gem in that it has enough complexity and content to have significant substance and be more than worth its price while also not being a large time demand, which is somewhat of a rare spot to hit in terms of video games. So if you want a strategy game with a very cool aesthetic (and some wacky but perhaps antiquated humor) that you can play on the side or 'on-and-off' while still being able to experience all of it then support Helmi Bastami by getting the game.
