Description

HIVEWARS is a search-and-destroy wargame between rival hives of bees.

Gather nectar from flowers to feed your bees and hatch new ones. Search for new flowers and enemy hives. Fight enemy bees and destroy their hives. Watch out for spiders!

Points are awarded ONLY for damage done to enemies, so an aggressive posture is essential. The rules are very simple, so its all about the balance between nectar-gathering, searching, and concentrated attacks.

You get a neat map with a point-and-click interface. Designed and tested on Internet Explorer, it may not work with other browers.
