BEES
They’ve only gone and done it. Those maniacs.
Hive Timeis an obscure gem that squeaked into the very end of last year. It’s a game where you be bees. Now it’s part of what will surely be forever called simplyThe Bundle, mentioned only in hushed, reverent tones. Over 1000 developers have donated their games to the Bundle For Racial Justice And Equality, and they can all be yours, to keep, DRM free, for as little as £4/$5. It’s raised close to $5,000,000 already.
Still not sure? Well,Hive Time’s recent update also had the best trailer ever.

Brrr br brrr, brrr BRRR!
Come on, I mean honestly. What does it take? There’s itsstore pagetoo.
Throughout all this are random events and cute little flavour pop ups about your bees' thoughts and mundane non-adventures throughout their litte bee day. There are difficulty options to switch off most events and even aspects of the game if you don’t like them (you can skip the research tree, for example). It’s not super challenging but there’s still no harm in making it even more relaxing than watching over your buzzy little hive already is.
I can’t remember if I’ve already told you about the time my housemate’s girlfriend hoovered up a nest of bees and we hid into the living room, certain that they would gather in the bag to form some sort of gargantuan multi-bee. That’s probably not in the game though.
Bees.
