HIVERNATION with Sean Chappel
Manage episode 288251669 series 2257506
We’d also like to give a big thank you to this week’s sponsor, LoganArch! Check out their Chicago-based shop for all of your geeky and nostalgic needs.
This week we’re very excited to chat with Sean Chappell about his upcoming Kickstarter game: HIVERNATION.
HIVERNATION is a 2 player abstract strategy game based on the behavior of bees who, just before winter, kick out all the Drone bees so that the majority of the hive can survive the winter and emerge strong in the spring. (Harsh, but true!)
In the game, each player gets a stack of 20 double-sided bee tiles (Workers on one side, Drones on the other) and 3 specialty tiles chosen at random. (For hardcore strategists, each player receives the same kind of specialty tiles.) The Queen Zizi tile goes in the center of the play space and players take turns laying tiles beside her, building the hive. Players continue playing tiles beside Queen Zizi or their own bee tiles until the two sides meet. Once they do, players can start converting their opponents tiles to their own by sandwiching their opponents tiles between their own and flipping over those caught in the middle. Also, players can use their specialty tiles to change game play by either flipping tiles in a ring, preventing tiles from being flipped or removing them from the game all together.
Ultimately, the player with the most tiles face up is the winner. Will it be Drones or Workers? There's only one way to find out, and that’s by backing the HIVERNATION Kickstarter on April 13.
