THE GAME

You start up a bee farming business with only 3 swarms of bees and $100 cash. Every week, you bring the bees to a forest and show them where the flowers are. The bees will bring nectar back to the beehive and produce honey. Sell honey in BEEDEX market will earn you money to go shopping at Farmers Co-op for more bees, a bigger honey jar, or a larger beehive.

THE BEES AND THEIR NATURAL ENEMIES

There are 6 types of working bees and 3 types of guardian bees. Working bees with larger appetite will collect nectar faster. Guardians do not collect nectar. Their job is to protect the working bees from Hornets! There are enemies hiding in some forests, such as hornets, black hornets, wax moth and giant hornets. Before you venture into a forest, ensure you have the right size of guardian team or your whole bee troop will be gone!
