It introduces 7 new asymmetric hive mats, 15 unique variable frames, and 15 new seed cards, significantly boosting replayability and strategic depth.

## Description

Apiary: Expanding the Hive adds to the variety of the core game with components designed to fit inside the original insert and a comprehensive appendix that covers the core game and the expansion. This expansion features a few bigger additions (7 new hive mats, 15 unique frames, and 15 new seed cards), along with a greater variety of tiles and tokens, plus a few updated components. The expansion also replaces the original frame mats with new variable frames, along with some revised versions of a few tiles and complete appendix encompassing the core game and the expansion.

Review: I love the game! IMHO, The expansion doesn’t really add anything new to the game, but it does help balance it out. Yes, there are new boards and pieces, but it’s similar to before. Though the frames change a little (for the better, adding more variety) That said, if you like Apiary, it cleans things up a little, I’d recommend it.
Review: The additional hives makes the base game way more replayable. This is a must have expansion.

## Features

- VARIETY: Add asymmetric variety via 7 new hive mats and 1 new faction, increasing replayability and making each game even more different.
- UNIQUE FRAMES: Expand your ship with new frames, all 15 of which have a unique combination of “when covered” benefits that aid you throughout the game.
- NEW HEX TILES: Improve your hive by gaining some of the 16 new hex tiles (farms, recruits, developments, and carvings).
- TEACH BEE DANCES: Increase the creativity of your dances by using the 6 new dance tokens and 3 new dance tiles.
- NEW SEED CARDS: Research new technologies in the form of 15 new seed cards, each of which feature unique seed art and special one time benefits or end of game scoring benefits.
- BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED AND ILLUSTRATED: Designed by Connie Vogelmann (Wyrmspan). Gorgeous space bees and universe illustrated by Kwanchai Moriya (Dinosaur Island).
- FULL OF POSITIVE PLAYER INTERACTIONS: Take actions that benefit you but also benefit other players in the game, leading to peaceful and interesting gameplay for game night.
- THEMATICALLY DESIGNED MECHANISMS: Aging bees become more powerful, but when they age past level 4, they go into hibernation. Pollinate planets with your queen ship while exploring.
- OVERVIEW: 60-90 minute playing time with only a 6 minute setup time. 1-5 players. Fun for ages 14+! Great game for couples, 2 players, family, and friends.
