Bee Simulator

Bee Simulator is a promising game from Varsav Game Studio, where you get to play as a bee. It was announced quite a while ago, and was delayed in order to expand the game’s features.

And today, it was announced that Varsav Game Studio has partnered with Bigben Interactive, which will result in two things:

• simultaneous release on all platforms (including Nintendo Switch)
• retail version

Unfortunately, players a-buzzing with anticipation will have to be patient, as the game is slated for a late 2019 release. The game will be playable in the following languages: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Polish.

Here’s some additional details about Bee Simulator:

Bee Simulator is a friends and family game that will allow you to see the world through the eyes of a honey bee. Compete with other bees in races, collect pollen, perform waggle dances, and explore a world inspired by Central Park in New York. Play it with your family or friends, choosing between three modes, including co-op and vs. split-screen.

– A unique chance to see the macro scale world from the micro perspective of a honeybee;
– A realistic representation of a place inspired by Central Park;
– Three diverse modes enriched with educational elements:
– Single-player story mode presents you with a family of bees. Can you save the hive from the threat of human beings?
– Exploration mode allows you to freely discover a world inspired by Central Park in New York.
– Split-screen mode can either be used for cooperation or competition. It includes an additional map that makes the game even more fascinating.
– The possibility to interact with your surroundings: people, animals, plants, and other insects;
– A lack of violence – it’s a perfect choice for parents looking for a game that their children can safely play;
– Relaxing music composed by Mikołaj Stroiński, who was responsible for the soundtrack of such games as The Witcher 3 and The Vanishing of Ethan Carter.
