Game of the week: Ant Nation - £8, Wii

While earthworms have long had their own video games (see the ongoing 'Worms' series for details), ants haven't been so lucky – until now. Available to download on the Wii's Virtual Console system, 'Ant Nation' offers players all the fun of owning their own ant farm without having to catch the little critters in the first place. Keep your mini beasts happy by feeding them and protecting them from enemies. Nintendo.com
