Let’s celebrate spring! With beautiful and vibrant games like Apiary, Wingspan, (Finspan?!), Everdell, and/or Meadow. The choice of game will probably depend on how many players we have. I think we’ll encourage playing Apiary, so what follows is a bit more details on that game.

Apiary will play with groups of 1-5 players. From the Publisher:

In a far-distant future, humans no longer inhabit Earth. The cause of their disappearance (or perhaps their demise) is unknown, but their absence left a void ready to be filled by another sentient species.

Over the span of untold generations, one species of the humble honeybee evolved to fill that void. They grew in size and intelligence to become a highly advanced society. They call themselves Mellifera, and they have made substantial technological advances in addition to the technology they adapted from human ruins, up to and including space travel.

In Apiary, each player controls one of twenty unique factions. Your faction starts the game with a hive, a few resources, and worker bees. A worker-placement, hive-building challenge awaits you: explore planets, gather resources, develop technologies, and create carvings to demonstrate your faction's strengths (measured in victory points) over one year's Flow. However, the Dearth quickly approaches, and your workers can take only a few actions before they must hibernate! Can you thrive or merely survive?

Wingspan: 1-5 Players

Everdell: 1-4 Players

Meadow: 1-4 Players
