About This Game

See the world through the eyes of a bee! Explore a world inspired by Central Park as you gather pollen, evade threats, and build your own thriving beehive. This edition combines the original Bee Simulator with The Hive expansion, introducing new mechanics, game modes, and fresh as spring pollen content—all in one buzzing adventure, perfect for players of all ages.

Take flight in a heartwarming single-player story where you must protect your hive from looming danger. As one of the swarm’s most diligent workers, your tiny wings will carry the fate of your entire colony.

Fly around and explore every nook and cranny of a vast, semi-open world map inspired by New York’s famous Central Park. From ponds to picnic grounds, funfairs to the zoo, you’ll uncover secrets, mini-games, and resources throughout. Find people, animals, plants, and other insects to interact with along the way.

The Hive expansion lets you build and customize your very own beehive from the ground up. Optimize your resource-gathering to collect what you need to create a buzzing home. Use a variety of practical and decorative buildings to bring your hive to life.

Being a bee means non-stop activity! Race through jet streams, collect pollen, perform bee dances, defend your colony from wasps, and tackle various challenges in an exciting mix of exploration and action-packed gameplay.

Team up with up to four friends or family in split-screen co-op. Play through custom-designed multiplayer maps with both cooperative and competitive game modes—fun for everyone, young and old!

Soar through the world with a peaceful and immersive soundtrack composed by Mikołaj Stroiński, renowned for his work on The Witcher 3 and The Vanishing of Ethan Carter.

That is very cool game. I enjoyed it all and had fun and chill playing it. Thanks a lot!
The game has almost the same feeling as the old one, but there are new mechanics like collecting resources. Unfortunately, when collecting resources you can no longer land the bee. My son is quite annoyed about this — there’s no roleplay anymore, and it also makes it impossible to collect energy from fruits. We continued playing from our old 100% savegame. It allowed us to enter the palm house to collect 40 pollen, which we did, and nearly all resources available. But in it, quests like “collect 4 sticks” (as seen in a video) didn’t appear. Instead, the game only said “go home to deliver the resources to the hive.” After doing that, the delivery quest did not complete and stayed stuck with the same message. Our savegame is now blocked, and my child is very frustrated with the game. It seams we've broken the quest system by collecting something on our way ... A way to reset progress back to 100% would be really helpful.
