Survive, gather resources, expand your crew, improve your starship, and pave the way through outer space – full of hostile races. Your path will consist of difficult choices and everyone will have an influence on the outcome. …and perhaps you might be able to solve the mystery of this universe. FLYING AMONG THE STARS You are the commander of the “Melistar” (“The Star Bee”), and you have a swarm of intelligent anthropomorphic bees. Your ship is your home, and your mission is to keep an eye on its fighting ability to repel enemy attacks; to stay on course, and to effectively collect resources to ensure that both the Queen and soldier bees have enough food; and, of course, to keep an eye on the status of your crew, whose members strive to get into trouble or arrange it. OTHER SPECIES The ship travels through an amazing universe full of strange insectoid races. Who you’ll be forming an alliance with, and who you’ll be fighting with, is largely up to you! The Merchant Guild fights the League of Smugglers; the intelligent Ants compete with Locusts for space colonies; the sinister cult of Blood Suckers spreads across the galaxy... We’ll have to fight and trade – and every one of these decisions can be a turning point in the story. SURVIVAL AND STORYTELLING * You can try your hand at surviving. Space cycles alternate, resources run out – and the crew increases; but luck and accurate calculation are on your side! Competently upgrade your ship and set the right course – and you can stay alive for a certain amount of time, or maybe even break a record! * If you like branching plots and world exploration – boldly immerse yourself in the storyline. The CyberHive universe is a mysterious and deep setting. Collect ancient artifacts and pieces of knowledge on distant planets about the past – and discover how the world turned out to be and what misfortune it faces. Maybe you can avert it... or not. MANY EVENTS As you try to find resources and survive, you will experience many events on the ship: from intrigues within the crew and problems with passengers, to a large contraband “set-up” or a collision with the ghost of a legendary pirate starship. Some events form a story, and some occur randomly. But the choices within each event will also have to be considered... ...Subjects with the waist of a wasp and a deadly sting; predatory rivals and faction battles; exploring the farthest corners of the galaxy; dangerous challenges and responsible decisions. Welcome to the world of CyberHive! Commander, we are counting on you.

* Easy to play X Severe adventure Again Buriedbornes2 is the sequel to the easy-to-play turn-based dungeon RPG series. The popular series, which has surpassed 2.5M total users, has evolved in a form that is easier to play and more freely enjoyable. Choose between 2 options for the room you want to progress in, decide which items you want to obtain, choose from up to 5 skills to use next, and more... The simple, non-real-time operation allows you to enjoy a serious adventure where death is the only thing you have to worry about. The best part of the Buriedbornes series is creating a powerful character that surpasses the terrifying army of undead and crushing them! * The battle of the dead and the cooperative "Union" The world is on the brink of ruin due to the invasion of the "Ancient Overlord" and his army of corpses, a threat suggested by the most ancient prophecies. You will repeatedly challenge dangerous dungeons by acquiring corpses, altering them, and using the forbidden "Buriedbornes" art of possessing their souls. It is a hopeless battle with no redemption or end, yet mankind has not given up on everything yet. In various parts of the world, communities of survivors, each with their own goals, continue to resist. By helping each other with them, we may find hope. * Races, jobs, origins, equipments, skills, runes... countless combinations At the start of the adventure, character creation is possible by selecting the race, job, and origin of the corpse to be used. Each legendary equipments that can be found in each dungeon has its own unique abilities. Up to 5 skills can be held, each of which can be set with up to 5 skill runes that can also be obtained in dungeons. These elements allow you to build your tactics freely from a myriad of options. You can build your builds systematically, or you can improvise and discover powerful builds through unexpected coincidences. * End-User license agreements https://nussygame.com/en/bb2/eula/
