Hive Lines
Hive Lines is a territory conquest game that plays in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, for one player against bots. It has a daily challenge, the same for everyone that day.
Drag from one of your hives to another hive to send half its bees; a hive flips when attackers outnumber defenders. Bees that fly through a flower grow by a third, so a longer route can beat a short one. Take every hive from the bot colonies across 30 meadows, or try the daily meadow.
How to play
- Drag from your yellow hive to another hive to send half your bees
- A hive becomes yours when your bees outnumber the ones inside
- Bees flying through a flower grow by a third. Take every hive
The game shows these steps as you play, the first time.
Controls
- Drag from a yellow hive to any hive to send half its bees
- Or tap your hive, then the target
- Vs bots
Tips
- Hives grow only while owned, so a wild hive is a frozen number: take it with just enough bees and let it start producing rather than overcommitting.
- Bots attack the target they can win and look at your hives first, sending from up to three hives at once, so a thin border hive invites a combined strike.
- A squad through a flower grows by about a third, once per flower, so 20 bees arrive as 27 and can flip a hive that 20 would have lost to.
When is a meadow won?
When no bot colony has a hive or a squad still in flight. Bees flying for a bot count, so the meadow ends only when the last of them lands. Stars go by time: three if you finish under 60 seconds plus 3 per meadow number, two under 120 plus 5 per meadow, else one.
Do the bot colonies get stronger?
Yes, in three ways. Meadows 1 to 3 have one bot colony, 4 to 13 have two, and 14 onwards three. Each colony starts with 10 bees plus the meadow number, and bots decide every 3.4 seconds on the first meadow, falling to 0.9 seconds later on.
