Forage: The Bee Game

From BoardGameGeek:

Forage: The Bee Game (2026) is a strategic, tactile tabletop game for 1 to 4 players where you guide a beehive through the four seasons. Players collect nectar and pollen, breed different types of bees, grow and defend their hive, and adapt to seasonal changes while avoiding a wandering bear. Gameplay follows the natural rhythm of a real honeybee colony, from Spring growth and Summer honey flow through to Autumn scarcity and Winter survival. The game features multiple modes of play, including Friendly, Fun, Competitive, Solo, and an extended two-player challenge. Each mode uses the same core systems while adjusting interaction, difficulty, and long-term strategy. All components are physical and tactile, including wooden flowers, magnetic bee pieces, a cloth board, and a moving sun tracker that marks the passing seasons. This 2026 edition is a ground-up redesign and final published version of Forage, with revised rules, mechanics, components, and game modes. -description from the designer
