In Apiary, each player controls 1 of 20 unique factions. Your faction starts the game with a hive, a few resources, and worker bees. A worker-placement, hivebuilding challenge awaits you: explore planets, gather resources, develop technologies, and create carvings to demonstrate your factions strengths (measured in victory points) over one years Flow. However, the Dearth quickly approaches, and your workers can only take a few actionswith benefits increasing relative to worker strength, culminating in powerful strength-4 bonusesbefore they must hibernate!
