This was honestly the best cozy game I have come across. It has clear instructions that give good indication on what to do while still allowing full autonomy to the player to complete whatever they desire. The art was incredible and very cozy while also being very educational on learning about bees. I would 100% recommend this game to any and everyone. This brought me a lot of joy playing :)

Absolutely enamored with this game. Got it on sale but would have gladly paid full price if i had realized how awesome it was before hand. I love this sort of gathering/breeding/puzzle game. It's honestly so hard to put down; it's so much fun!! Also I can appreciate the lack of a time limit

The lack of words I have for this game cannot be simply attributed to a positive or negative portrayal but rather the simplistic ever-inherent mediocrity discovered in this bee game It's perfect-ly fine I just cannot imagine an analytically driven argument for this game landing on either side of a critics coin (Basically I'm saying this game is mid)

Apico is a beekeeping simulator that allows players to have an almost Minecraft experience when it comes to taking care of bees and harvesting honey. This game is multiplayer, although when I played it with my husband it did have some glitches. The game did lag when we played the game together but we did work through those issues by restarting the game and it did seem to work. As far as a story it feels more like Minecraft in that regard, the story is more of a guide and the introduction feels a bit like Stardew Valley (Grandpa dies when you moved from the city). It is a good peaceful game that is centered more around crafting and collecting than anything else. I think that this game is good for people who do not want a stressful crafting game or collecting game. This game feels more relaxed and laid back than Minecraft or Stardew. It does have elements of real beekeeping in the game as well as real tools that beekeepers use in order to preserve the lives of bees for breeding, reloca...

So cute, fun, and surprisingly expansive. I love the theme and scratches that same itch for me that Stardew Valley does.

very addictive management sim type game with SO MUCH to do (a little overwhelming at first ngl) while balancing the grindiness with good quality of life features and and cosy aesthetic. the life sciences nerd in me also really appreciated the way this game incorporated elements of genetics, ecology, and agriculture in an educational yet approachable way.
