Wild Hive

Wild Hive is a bee colony roguelite built around a demanding honey market. You grow a hive, hatch worker bees and sell their honey on a stock market. The quota rises each year, and missing it ends your run.

Forage and trade

Send bees to gather flowers in procedurally generated locations, from Bluebell Woods to the richer, riskier Alpine Meadows. Foraging bees may not make it home. Sell your harvest when honey prices peak, and trade shares in rival hives or lease out your own bees through the RAX (Royal Apiary Exchange).

Grow your colony

Hatch, feed and assign work to a swarm of bees, then configure your hive using a range of possible combinations. Silo upgrades, Royal Seals and stock market bets combine to shape how your colony operates. You can buy Royal Seals in the shop once a year; these permanent modifiers change the rules of your run.

Defend the hive

Wasps attack the colony, and your bees must fight to protect it. Workers charge while mercenaries hold the line; if the last defender falls, the wasps go for the Queen. If she dies, the colony is lost.

Biomes and modes

The game has five biomes, including Mountain Lake, where you fish, and Juicy Orchards, where you catch apples. It offers unlimited levels and seven difficulty tiers to unlock, each of which changes the rules against you. You can unlock and play as six Queen bees, each with unique attributes and powers, or play Endless mode and grow the biggest hive you can without worrying about the quota.
