## What is Bee Idle?

BeeIdle is a cozy idle game about turning a single bee into a buzzing honey empire.

Tap to gather honey, let your swarm fill the combs, and sell it at your little market stall. Spend your gold on upgrades, buy more bees, and watch your hive grow – comb by comb, variety by variety.

Best of all: your Night Swarm keeps working while you're offline. Come back and collect a sweet honey payday.

When you're ready, ascend to a brand-new honey variety with a permanent bonus. Fourteen varieties await, from humble Blossom honey to legendary Ambrosia. Go further with a great Ascension to unlock whole new systems: a honey factory, research & breeding, trade routes, your own beekeepers, and a sprawling honey empire.

FEATURES
• Pure cozy idle – tap, gather, sell, upgrade, repeat
• Hundreds of upgrades for combs, bees, market and research
• 14 honey varieties to ascend through, each with its own look and bonus
• Deep prestige layers: factory, research, logistics, operations, empire
• Offline earnings – your Night Swarm keeps working while you sleep
• 111 achievements, each granting a permanent Honey Blessing bonus
• Handmade, buttery-smooth custom art and animation
• Fully localized in English and German
• No accounts, no tracking, no ads – everything stays on your device

Sweet, calm, and endlessly satisfying. Grab a jar and start buzzing!
