About Wild Hive - Build & Survive
Wild Hive is a bee colony roguelite driven by a ruthless honey market. Grow your hive, hatch a swarm of worker bees, and sell the honey they make on a realistic stock market. The honey quota climbs every year, and the year you miss it, your run is over.
You must send your bees foraging flowers in procedurally-generated locations, from the safety of Bluebell Woods to the rich, risky Alpine Meadows. Bee careful! They might not return home.
Then sell the harvest when the honey price peaks on the stock market.
Under the picture-book art is a deep engine builder. Silo upgrades, Royal Seals, and stock market bets stack into a colony that runs seamlessly, until the wasps come to tear it apart. Workers charge, mercenaries hold the line, and when the last defender falls they go for the Queen. If she dies, so does the colony. Wild Hive offers endless replayability.
Key Features
- Hatch, feed, and put to work a swarm of cute little bees (with huge personality!)
- Grow your hive and configure it with unlimited possible combinations.
- Buy Royal Seals in the shop once a year: permanent modifiers that bend the rules of your run.
- Trade shares in rival hives and lease out your own bees on the RAX (Royal Apiary Exchange).
- Settle 5 biomes, from fishing the Mountain Lake to catching apples in the Juicy Orchards.
- Unlimited levels and 7 tiers of difficulty to unlock. Each one rewrites the rules against you.
- 6 Queen bees to unlock and play as. Each Queen has unique attributes and powers.
- Or ignore the quota entirely in Endless mode and grow the biggest hive you can.
This app contains a free-to-play version of the game. There is an in-app purchase to unlock the full Wild Hive experience.
