Hive Carbon
This game is still the same as the award winning flagship Hive® game, but with a Carbon twist which is an alternative to the existing set of pieces for those who prefer a classic black and white colour scheme and, furthermore, includes two additional game pieces!
Hive is a board game with a difference. There is no board! The pieces are added to the playing area thus creating the board. As more and more pieces are added the game becomes a fight to see who can be the first to capture the opposing Queen Bee.
The soldier ants battle to keep control of the outside of the hive, whilst the Beetles climb up to dominate the top. Spiders moving into holding positions as the Grass Hoppers jump in for the kill. Keeping one eye on the hive and the other on your opponents reserves, the tension builds as one wrong move will see your Queen Bee quickly engulfed; …. game over!
Included with this edition will be the infamous mosquito piece and a very special ladybug piece. Once in play, a Mosquito can take on the movement ability of any creature of either colour that it is touching at the start of its move. The Ladybug moves in a very interesting way which will add that extra strategy to your game play to make your game both fun and challenging at the same time.
