Ant Attack is a ZX Spectrum computer game by Sandy White. It was published in 1983 by Quicksilva, and converted to the Commodore 64 in 1984. It is notable for having the first playable female character in a videogame (the player starts by choosing boy or girl).
The same type of isometric projection was used in Sandy White's later Zombie Zombie.
The player controls either a boy or a girl (the game allows you to choose at the start) who has to enter the walled city of Antescher in order to rescue their significant other who has been captured and tied up somewhere in the city. The city is inhabited by giant ants which chase and attempt to bite the player. The player can defend themselves by throwing grenades at the ants. Once the hostage is rescued, the two must escape the city. After this, the whole thing starts again with the hostage located in a different part of the city, with each location being progressively more difficult to reach than the previous.
