Getting started
Step
When you first load in, you're given a starter bee and a small hive. From there, the core loop is simple: bees make honey, you sell honey for cash, and that cash pays for more bees and a bigger hive.
- Collect your first bees each one you add increases how fast honey is produced.
- Sell your honey to convert honey into cash.
- Upgrade your bees spend cash to raise each bee's output.
- Expand the hive once your space fills up, buy more room so you can place additional bees.

Offline production
Summary
Honey production continues automatically even when you close the game, making this a friendly idle game you can check in on rather than grind constantly. The more bees you have and the stronger they are, the larger the pile waiting for you when you return.
- Bee count the bigger your collection, the more honey stacks up overnight.
- Bee quality upgraded bees produce more per bee, so upgrades multiply your offline earnings too.

Common questions
FAQDo I need to spend Robux to progress?
No paid purchases are required — every part of the game is accessible without spending Robux.
How much honey builds up while I'm offline?
It depends on how many bees you have and how upgraded they are. A larger, stronger hive produces more honey during a long offline session than a small starter hive does.
What should I do if I encounter a bug?
Restart the game and see if the problem clears up. If it persists after restarting, report it to the developer.
