What is 'Waggle Dance'?
"A series of patterned movements performed by a scouting bee, communicating to other bees of the colony the direction and distance of a food source or hive site."
What is the game about?
The idea of the game is simple. Each player controls a hive of bees who are out and about collecting pollen which they will then later turn into honey. The first player to create 7 segments of honey is declared the winner.
The game is played with a set of dice which determine possible available actions to each player. Actions such as increase the hive, collect and hatch eggs (new worker bees), garner favours from the Queen, collect pollen, create honey.These pictures are taken from the prototype, but do give a good indication of how the final game will look (in terms of component types, not component quality).
More Information?
Grublin Games will also have a presence at the UK Games Expo. in Birmingham which runs from the 30th May to 1st June. Henry and his team will be running demonstration games, so pop by to stand K1 and say hello.
How can you get a copy?
The game is being funded via Kickstarter and the campaign aims to launch on May 27th, so keep an eye out for that. And from what I understand, price wise it is really well positioned (with exceptionally well priced shipping costs for everyone).
