I don't think anyone needs more than "Space Bees!!!" to make a decision but, just in case some people do... Over the weekend after Apiary arrived here, we played it 3 times and it's just great. There's a lot going on but after 2 or 3 turns it all falls into place. Every game has been different: we all had completely different strategies each time and they all work in their own way. Bumping rather than blocking makes it easier to plan ahead as well since all placements are always available to all players. The game plays fairly quickly and it's lots of fun. Very glad to have it in our collection.

In a far-distant future, humans no longer inhabit Earth. The cause of their disappearance (or perhaps their demise) is unknown, but their absence left a void ready to be filled by another sentient species.
Over the span of untold generations, one species of the humble honeybee evolved to fill that void. They grew in size and intelligence to become a highly advanced society. They call themselves Mellifera, and they have made substantial technological advances in addition to the technology they adapted from human ruins, up to and including space travel.
In Apiary, each player controls one of twenty unique factions. Your faction starts the game with a hive, a few resources, and worker bees. A worker-placement, hive-building challenge awaits you: explore planets, gather resources, develop technologies, and create carvings to demonstrate your faction's strengths (measured in victory points) over one year's Flow. However, the Dearth quickly approaches, and your workers can take only a few actions before they must hibernate! Can you thrive or merely survive?
