An alternate ending is for Reemus himself to jump into the Ant Queen's mouth and she chokes on his head. This ending is caused by poisoning the queen.

Дuring a Casual Connect Seattle 2009 panel, Kongregate CEO Jim Greer mentioned Chapter 3 saying it was 'a successful game on Kongregate, but most of the negative comments focused on its unnecessary length', illustrating the point that length doesn't equal value. JayIsGames' average rating of the four games is 4.6/5.
