Lotusland Studios is proud to present the official version of John Yianni's
award winning game Hive.
Hive is a board game with a difference. There is no board! The pieces are
added to the playing area thus creating the board. As more and more pieces
are added the game becomes a fight to see who can be the first to capture
the opposing Queen Bee.
The soldier ants battle to keep control of the outside of the hive, whilst
the Beetles climb up to dominate the top. Spiders moving into holding
positions as the Grasshoppers jump in for the kill. Keeping one eye on the
hive and the other on your opponents reserves, the tension builds as one
wrong move will see your Queen Bee quickly engulfed; .... game over!
Hive's unique gameplay is suitable for players of all ages. The game is
quickly learned but hard to master like other classic games of its genre.
Interface elements clearly indicating where a player may move or place their
pieces makes this version easier for the novice to learn than the tabletop
version, and players without a partner will be challenged by the AI opponent.
Hive is a beautiful 3D game that allows the player to choose from different
sets of pieces and different colored backgrounds. While Hive is not
traditionally played on a board, users may display a hex grid to aid their
visualization of the game's possibilities and movements.
This version of Hive includes the Mosquito, a parasitic new Hive piece that
takes on the abilities of its neighbors. Use your Mosquito cleverly as an
extra Ant, Beetle or Spider. Tournament rules forbidding placement of the
Queen Bee as the first move are also an option for each game.
The single player mode features four levels of difficulty, including a
beginner setting that will not overwhelm new players of this game. As the
player defeats each level, the next is unlocked.
Two players can also play each other using one device. Now the game without
a board can be played without a table!
Hive's four tile sets include a wooden set with the official Hive 2nd
Edition artwork, a plastic set with the official Hive 3rd Edition artwork, a
third set designed by LotusLand Studios, and a high contrast black and
white 'Carbon' set designed for outdoor play.
The game's soundtrack is by John Tennant, including the tracks 'Depths','
TypeCaste' and two exclusive remixes of 'Project of Science' from the album
'Early Ambient Works'. Users may also listen to their own music library when
playing Hive; the game will not start its own music if music is already
playing.
