  Hmmm this has a lot of potential but right now there is no direction or game play really. It seems to kind of play itself and run through days really quickly. I got the first 2 hives set up (I think) by randomly clicking around but I have no idea what to do next. There are beekeeping terms/items on here with no explanation as to what it is/ does, so it is a little confusing for non-bee keepers trying to play. There is no store (that I could find) to buy new equipment for your hives or instruction on how to make or obtain new items for hives to upgrade them. I really hope more things are added to this game! It could be a lot of fun with some more guidance :D I also think some content should be added to the "store" side, the beginning note said we would take care of the apiary and the other character/farmer would take care of the store and financials. I would love to see some kind of store front to manage/sell the different bee products produced, maybe something like customer requests for different quality level honey/ bee products and it is the players task to fulfill that order.

  If you know anything about beekeeping you LOVE the idea of this game. It has a ton of great concepts, like setting up hives in different ways, experimenting with different bee genetics and specializing hives to produce different things like wax, pollen etc- it looks like there's ways to tamper with different plants the bees can feed off of as well. Hiring people with knowledge in catching swarms or other things is really great as well. It really has tons of things in it that real beekeepers manage and it's great. At the moment though the game is janky, the camera is a bit awkward, and it feels like it runs itself. I make a new hive but it feels like everything is already in the hive- no setup. The hive stand looks empty despite that.. I can't tell if I'm making money or losing money. The employees kind of just manage everything themselves. Sometimes there's like 3 mated queens in a hive and there's no consequence for things like that. The UI is really messy- there are buttons that do nothing, I sometimes click things and I'm not sure what I've done by clicking them, if anything at all. This is a great idea in theory and you could seriously do so much with a game like this, make tons of content, and actually help teach the beeks of tomorrow. Seriously I'd invest hundreds of hours in a complete game like this with the bugs worked out, and i could see a lot of educational money thrown at it too. I just think a game of this calibre needs an army of devs backing it up. It makes me excited but I can say it was hard for me to keep playing it at this stage of development. What I'd really like to see is the person who made this game working with farming simulator devs or something and bringing all that knowledge to a strong, experienced game dev team who could take this massive potential for content and really put time and focus into it.

  Well a tutorial is what is needed as there is no clue as to how to get started. You are told to do something but I have no idea how to do it and no idea what i am looking at. At this point I would not recommend this game. It needs a lot more work. At this point it is a totally useless game. Not ready to be played. Even watching someone play it on youtube is no help.
