The Big Question: Should you make a beeline for bee stimulator?
By Rebecca Stow
Bee Simulator

Planet Earth needs the honeybee. Crops depend on worker bees to pollinate them, yet our tiny allies live difficult and perilous lives. Bee Simulator puts you in a worker bee’s busy shoes and pits you against all that’s threatening the honeybee’s humble existence.

The main goal of Bee Simulator is to do what bees do best: collect lots of nectar before returning to the hive so it can be processed into delicious honey. Luckily, the city park around your avatar’s hive is overgrowing with bright, nectar-filled flowers, all of differing types and rarities. Each variant of flower is sorted into distinct categories which can be seen by activating Bee Vision, with different colourations signalling which nectar is the premium variety. By pressing the right stick you’ll trigger your first-person Bee Vision, allowing you to take in what is an impressively detailed world through much smaller eyes than you’re used to.
