About this game

A cozy incremental game about collecting honey from flowers, building honeycomb, and hatching bees to collect even more honey.

Collect Honey From Flowers

Click on a flower to send your bee to gather from that flower. Hovering over a flower will tell you about that flower and how much honey it provides for one payload. 

Bees will find more flowers in the garden as your hive grows in size and from experience over time.

BEWARE!

Flowers disappear in the winter, so store honey in cells as needed. Your swarm of bees consume honey daily! 

Grow Your Hive

As you collect honey from flowers, you are able to build more honeycomb cells. When you have collected enough honey, you can click on a cell, highlighted in green, that you want to build. Hovering over a cell slot will show the amount of honey needed to construct another honeycomb cell. 

Once you have an open cell in your honeycomb, you can then spend more honey on hatching new bees to collect more honey. More experienced and efficient bees can be hatched, once you've purchased enough bees of the previous level. 

Queen Ascension

Queen bees only live for a certain number of days before they leave. Once your queen is ready to ascend you'll be given the choice to select a new Queen Bee to start a new swarm all over again. Luckily, you get to keep the hive and inherit all the honey!

Is that AI or Photoshop?

Yes. It's photoshopped. Long before men faked lunar landings, bees have been landing on flowers. Hive Thrive uses actual photos of real bees and real flowers!

Sadly, the Bee's Knees Gym does not accept human members.
