I want a Sim Ant game but with bees (beehaw.org)

Beehaw has me thinking about bees..

Sim Ant was such a nice little game when it came out (yes, I'm old) and it ought to be fun to have something similar but with bees.

Does anyone know if such a game exists? I looked around a bit and found Bee Simulator on steam but that's more playing a single bee, not managing the entire hive.

Might still be neat though even if it's not quite what I had in mind.

Anyway, just.. wanted more bees. :)

Give Hive Time a go. It has been a while since I played it in its early days but it was a fun bee hive management game.

The author is quite a fan of bees so I imagine he has done them justice.

Oh wow, this project looks like a really awesome management game! Thanks for sharing!

Edit:

Huh, I already own it without knowing it too O_o

I do that too. Especially with books. Start doing research for something new to read.. finally settling on something that sounds really good.

Only to find I've already gone through that exact process and bought the book a few years back but never actually read it.

It was in style giant charity bundle. The game is fun for a single party through I think.

I just gave this a play-through because of your recommendation. What an adorable game! Thank you for sharing it.
