"Each player is an ambitious bee who wants to be the big-shot of the hive by building his or her own. Hives go up in value by having wide levels and tall stacks of honey. As soon as the Wax Stash includes the predetermined number of hexagons, the game ends. Whoever has built the most valuable hive (structure of hexagons) at the end of the game becomes the Big-Shot Bee and wins the game." (From the rulebook)
Bee Sneaky! is a game of double-double-think. With a light beehive theme, the only game components needed to play the game are generic transparent plastic yellow hexagons. Each round, a player secretly places a number of hexagons he wants to add to his hive in his left hand, and a number of hexagons in his right hand that corresponds to the specific way he wants to place them: either on the base-level of the hive, or on higher levels of the hive, or in stacks of "honey." But if several players choose the same action, only the player with the least number of hexagons to place gets to play the action!
