Trivia

• Although the ants are called Monomorium minimum in the game, more up-to-date scientific literature describes them as Monomorium carbonarium.

• In real life, little black ants disperse venom in the air instead of stinging. In the game, you can see the stingers during gaster-flagging animation.
