Hive

Hive — a chess-like abstract strategy game played with premium bakelite insect tiles.

Surround your opponent’s Queen Bee before they surround yours, using a collection of insects each with their own unique movement rules. The Queen, Beetle, Grasshopper, Spider, and Soldier Ant all move differently, creating deep tactical play from a simple set of pieces. No board required — the tiles form the playing area as you place them. One of the best two-player abstract games ever made.

The quality of the tiles is exceptional — heavy, satisfying bakelite pieces that feel great to play with and go anywhere.
