Build wax comb, merge brood & turn the hive to face raiders. Bee tower defense!
Combward is a portrait strategy game about a wild honeybee colony in an old oak. Build the honeycomb cell by cell, merge brood into stronger bees and turn the whole comb to meet each raid. Keep the Queen and the honey safe from wasps, hornets, beetles and the Honey Badger.
BUILD, MERGE AND TURN THE COMB
• Build with wax: add comb cells on any side, so every day's hive has its own shape.
• Merge brood: place brood in the cells and merge two of the same rank to rank it up. Fed brood hatches bees that defend the comb.
• Nurse bees: a nurse in the comb feeds the brood in the six cells around it. Some nurses also sting, poison raiders with propolis, fan them back, zap them or heal the Queen.
• Six gates: scouts announce which of the six gates the next wave will use. Between waves, turn the comb so your strongest side faces it.
ONE DAY AT A TIME
Each level is one day of the colony's year. At dawn, send foragers to flower patches for nectar and a Dawn Boon, or keep them home to defend. At dusk the raiders fly in and chew toward the honey and the Queen. Your score is the honey you keep: up to three jars a day. Watch for hidden honey thieves and for the great raid, when the Hornet Queen dives straight at your Queen.
THREE SEASONS, 27 BEES
Play through Spring, Summer and Autumn, each with its own flowers, raiders and bosses: the Hornet Queen, the Honey Badger, the Black Bear and more. Collect 27 bees, from the Guard Bee and Pollen Archer to the Thunder Drone, Frost Bumble and Storm Carpenter, plus eight kinds of nurse bees. Upgrade them with brood shards and honey.
THE GLADE AND HIVE GAMES
New activities open as the days go by:
• The Meadow: grow flowers in seven hex plots, pollinate them and shoo the aphids. Blooms add nectar to your dawn forage.
• Honey Cellar: nectar ripens into honey while you are away. Fill the frame and feed the larvae.
• Waggle Dance: spin, dance along a figure-eight path and pick the loop with the prizes you want.
• Pollen Bounce: a pinball table with leaf flippers, flower bumpers and nectar cups.
• Queen Traits: set royal jelly traits in the Queen's crown to power every bee.
• Hive Duel: face the same raids as an AI rival colony. The colony that loses less honey wins the round.
• Honey Rush: defend all six gates against the clock.
• Swarm Rush: hatch and merge bees in a small comb while raiders circle the hive.
• Nurse Puzzle: place only nurse bees so every brood cell is fed.
