Arthropods: Ants & Bees

From BoardGameGeek:

Arthropods: Ants & Bees : build your colony & bug your friends Arthropods consists of four interactive tile placement games in one box. Depending on which game you choose, you play either as an ant or as a bee colony. Both versions have two difficulty modes. Families with children (8+) should definitely play the basic game(s) for a maximum of fun, while more experienced players are better challenged playing the full game(s). In all cases should you aim to score the highest amount of points while preventing others from scoring or even forcing them to take minus points. Game mechanics used to achieve this are: Tile placement Worker Placement Area Control Resource Management Blocking and/or attacking Other mechanics used for a ballenced play are: Drafting Open market Hand building The Ants Antropolis - basic game playing as ants Supersize Colony - strategically challenging game playing as ants Ants are hard workers who build nests and tunnels (hexagon tiles). They also gather food (resource) in the forest, which allows them to perform more actions. Each type of ant (queen, worker, soldier and larva) can perform specific actions and is needed to (f.e.) score points, gather resources, get more ants or defend against other players. Points are scored for completed nests, tunnels and achieving bonuses. The Bees Happy Honey Beez - basic game playing as bees Knights in Buzzing Armor - highly interactive game playing as bees Bees are buzzy building hives (hexagon tiles) and collecting pollen or honey (resources). They too have different tasks per type (queen, worker, drone and egg) and interact a lot with other colonies. Points are scored by building hives, producing honey and the amount of bees on the board.
