Canada’s sweetheart Rodney Smith explains how to play the sweetest game, yes please
Ha!
I swear, it’s so nice just listening to him talk
Oh my gosh! When you played the ‘suitable replacement,’ I couldn’t stop laughing. Well played 🤠
;)
Came to say this! I giggled out loud. One of the reasons Rodney is high up there in his field!
I'm coming to this pretty late to the party, but wanted to say thanks! I don't really have experience playing these complex new types of board games, but recently got this one (and one other) as a gift. Your video helped it feel less intimidating and I'm going to play it with my husband this afternoon. Thank you!
Never too late to discover a game that's new-to-you :) Very glad you found the video helpful - have fun playing!
I like to tell myself Rodney NEVER needs a second take for those box-spinning tricks, he's just that good.
I don't know how do you do it Rodney but every game you present looks even more appealing and beautiful on your channel compered to others. Is it the lighting, camera angles I can't tell but it is always a pleasure to watch a how to play video.
Very kind of you to say Ivan, glad you're enjoying watching!
So very visually appealing. Big-time eye candy that I wouldn't expect such complexity from. Great breakdown Rodney as always, I think I could listen to you explain anything and it would make me relax.
Edit: spacing and spelling.
Very kind of you to say Gary!
Rodney, what a pro you are. Even matching your shirt with the colors in the game's artwork.
Nice catch Bart :)
I FINALLY received my kickstarter yesterday, and immediately we watched this video and played the game. Rodney again for the win!! Thanks a ton for helping me and my family enjoy this game.
A total pleasure - glad it finally arrived to you :)
I'm just sad I can't get this game because I don't own any tiny honey pots to use as suitable replacements should the pollen run out.
It's not too late to start your own honey farm!
Bee-ples! I love it! Can’t wait to pick up this game when it comes out.
Yeah, I liked that too :)
You've been teaching me ges for a decade! Thank you for your lovely videos!
You're very welcome - and thank you for being with us so long!
Just got it in the mail. Thanks for teaching me how to play!
Hope you have a great time with it!
just bought this game and this video was super helpful with helping me understand how to play it...can't wait to play my first solo game and introduce it to my nephews who love these kind of games
Very nice to know this was helpful - thanks for the kind comment!
Honey buzz, the game to bee in your collection. Haha
Just added it to mine at last.
These how to play are really convincing, and I'm falling for it everytime.
Careful, puns can bee infectious!
Always extremely clear! Thanks
Thanks Davide, glad you enjoyed!
Thanks for teaching us how to play, Rodney.
My pleasure Steinar - have a great time playing!
Fantastic as always!
Thanks Dan - glad you enjoyed!
Wow that was a lot to follow but amazing job. Really glad you re summarized it again when we got back to the recall action.
So glad this was helpful!
Just got the game today, and went straight here to learn to play. Thanks! By the way, I love that shirt!
Have a great time playing Jason!
This looks buzztastic! Can not wait to my copy to arrive! Thx for the introduction Queen Rodney
You're very welcome :) Hope you have a great time playing!
@@WatchItPlayed Just got my copy in the mail today. This is a beautiful game!!!
@@janmoetting1571 Quite a production, right?!
Cheers Rodney. Just played it and had a blast.
So glad to hear you enjoyed!
Thank you for yet another amazing rules. Ideo Rodney!!
Thanks so much Paul - have fun playing!
Awesome work, Rodney.
Thanks!
Thanks! I did the Kickstarter mainly because I have hives and enjoy board games. It seems like they might have over thought the game a little bit and I appreciate your explanations. It's reminding me of Agricula or Caverna.
Thanks for checking it out! Yes, certainly a more involved game than Hive (which I've never played, but have only heard good things - I want to check that one out).
Thank you. I'm sorry, I meant I have actual bee hives.
@@DavidHoll Oh, very cool!
Thanks!
Just bought it! Cant wait to play- thanks Rodney!
Have a great time playing Jahnie!
Where did you purchase it? I can't find it online
@@geminimaii Miniature Market online
Excellent!
Thanks!
Such cute components!
They're truly adorable :)
The deluxe component upgrade takes it to a whole other level. The wooden Coin pack too! I can't wait to get my hands on that stuff.
Cute game - thanks for teachings us newbees ;)
Nicely done :)
I finally have a copy of Honey Buzz! Which means… I get to rewatch the tutorial! Wooohoooo!
Have a great time playing!
Rodney is a gem and we must protect him at all costs
New glasses! 😎 👍
I have a question about "produce". Do you have to have a hive tile with the produce symbol adjacent to the nectar to produce? Or can you use the fan piece to produce even when you don't have a produce hive tile. If you have a produce hive tile, could you use that tile and your fan to produce twice (once of two different by adjacent nectars)?
I normally do my best to answer all rules questions on my videos, but I shot this one long enough ago I don't have a clear memory of the rules, and I don't have my copy of the game to look it up for you - sorry!
Love this theme. It is definitely buzz-worthy.
Well played Henri!
I got this game for Teej for Valentine's Day and it's coming in sometime this week or next. It was hard for us to locate for quite a while.
I think it was out of print for a little while there, glad you tracked down a copy Ben!
@@WatchItPlayed Yes out of print a year I think, was very popular I guess!
Is there any difference between Rosemary and Cherry blossom honey pieces?
Yes, slightly different colors, but also a different shape.
Beelieve it or not, we finally got to play! Even though my husband beet me by tons of points, it was a sweet time. Thank you for the honeyful teach, Rodney! (There was a time when I hated puns. Then I married Ben. Then I realized there must be a force of destiny that causes people who hate puns to marry people who love them. I was trying to fight the good fight, and then I started watching your channel and just gave up screaming every time I heard a pun.....In other words, this post is all your fault. XD)
You have become quite the pun master :) I have learned to endure it hanging out with Chaz so much!
@@WatchItPlayed I thought *you* were the pun guy! :)
Can you please tell me that can we take an action for several times in the game of pandemic?
Have you watched our tutorial video for Pandemic? th-cam.com/video/ojkScPkdgsk/w-d-xo.html
I have only one question... how many takes did it take for you to flip the box cover and catch it right side up in the opening introduction?
It's almost as if you're suggesting I don't get it the first time, every time. Hmmm!
@@WatchItPlayed well if that is true then your superior skills astonishes me! Haha! Great video, by the way, I just got my KS copy yesterday and looking forward to playing it with my family when I get off work today!
@@TaylenReyn Have a great time playing!
Quick question Rodney: when all the tokens in the foraging field run out, do we replace them all?
It's been a little while since I shot this, but I don't believe the rule book says that it gets refilled.
@@WatchItPlayed amazing, thanks Rodney! It didn’t say it no, i searched everywhere but then thought maybe it might’ve been left out by accident so wanted to confirm
😂😂😂 so many bee puns.
It was buzzing with them!
Hehe, "bee-line" :)
You're such a sweet man Rodney..
~ smiles ~
Rodney, I know you don’t like to give out personal recommendations however I am truest an interested in how you enjoyed the game regardless of whether I would enjoy it or not! :)
Even giving my own opinion feels like I'm advising someone else on what they'll think about the game, so I just avoid it in in general.
If there is a baby bee in the nursery, and someone wants to place a worker beeple in the New Bee hive box, do you treat the baby bee as a worker in the Hive box, meaning you need to place a beeline of two beeples? Or do you only consider beeples placed as workers when determining the number of beeples needed in a beeline?
In order words, if there is only one bee in the the Baby Bee hive box, and it's a bee that was placed on the nursery, do I need to place one bee, or a beeline of two bees, to take a new baby bee time?
Hey, I normally try to answer all rules questions, but I lent my copy to a friend, so I can't easily look this one up for you, sorry!
What happens if all four players tie for a final contest?
Hey Pedro, you'll find that answered here: th-cam.com/video/O_C9YBonkRs/w-d-xo.html&t=1087
So I finally picked up this game, and I have a question about the Hive Board. Both the 1-2 and 3-4 player sides look identical... Am I missing something? Thanks!
Hey Marty, I don't have the game handy to check for you, sorry!
@@WatchItPlayed That's okay, I figured it out! there was an extra dividing line on the 2-3 player side. I'm blind 😅
it's so easy to make puns with bee's. I can't beelieve it.
I'm confused on getting bees after you recall workers. Do you move bees from supply to nursery to available workers? Then after recall you move the bees on the board back to your available workers?
Hi David, it's been a little while since I shot this, but I'm not sure I'm following your question based on what I show in the video. I might need a few more details, can you watch the section in the video on recalling workers and let me know which part is unclear?
@@WatchItPlayed I think I've figured it out. I missed the part about putting all your beeples together in supply and thought the only way you got bees to use as workers was through the nursery. With recall I put them back in supply and was unsure how to get them back as workers.
Thanks for following up.
Wait - are Rosemary and Cherry Blossom different colours? It's very hard to tell.
They are, it's subtle, but they are also different shapes.
@@WatchItPlayed Thanks. My old and frail eyes couldn't see much of a difference :)
@@Dizzula Good news! They are also different shapes, which match the shapes on the nectar tiles. Color blind friendly.
I Stan Paul Salomon. That's it. That's the Tweet.
MUAH! Love you buddy.
In a three player game, if 2 players tie for second place, do they still both get the full payout?
Yep!
I was the 1000th Like, woo hoo!
And just as appreciated as the first - thank you!
At 19:35, did you say "Honey butts"?
OH MY GOD YES!
I notice a game on the shelf called 'Rap Godz' - have you done a how to play for this one too?
I haven't
So... Just how many takes does it usually take to get the perfect spin for your intros?
Are you suggesting I don't get it on the first try?!?!?! ;)
Watch the bloopers video.
Would love to experience this game but it's unavailable / sold out. 😂 So cute.
Hope you're able to track down a copy eventually!
Here's some questions for you:
1. If a stack of hive tiles is empty, could you still get in it future turns, and could the game also end if a certain amount of hive tiles are empty? For example, if 2 stacks end up empty, can that end the game? In other words, are stacks of tiles considered "limited," and could running out of them end a game?
2. Would you be force to pass your turn if you don't have enough bees to add to an open space, and you have none currently, and you couldn't fulfill a queen's contest? For example, if you were playing with 4 players, and a player has only 1 bee and none currently on the board, and the other players have at least 2 bees on each of the 5 open spaces, and you couldn't even fulfill the queen's contest, would you have to pass in that instant?
Let me know your answers, if possible.
Hey Daniel
1) Nope, that's not one of the game end conditions.
2) You aren't forced to pass, but you would be forced to Recall Workers.
@@WatchItPlayed Thanks for the answers.
By the way, I can see that you now have Dune: Imperimum on your permeant game shelf. As a suggestion for a future live show topic, when the upgrade pack for the game with the miniatures is released, could you do an unboxing of its contents. I think it would be could to see that from you next year.
Otherwise, the Dune: Imperium and Honey Buzz tutorials were excellent this week. Keep up the good work.
@@danielschaublin I don't typically do unboxings, but if my schedule allows, it's something I might consider. Thanks for the kind words on the videos Daniel!
My KS isn't getting here fast enough.
Hopefully soon - and now you'll be a little more prepared to play :)
I’m with ya! Even more excited now! Thanks Rodney. Basically my wife will only learn new games if you explain them. :/
@@tuckerroveto1058 Happy to assist :)
19:33 Honey Butts? :)
If you don't yet have this game just use a suitable replacement
Pulls out bee hive*
We ran out of potential moves (all tiles were taken) before either of the end game conditions were met. The rules say nothing of this potential end game. We think the game effectively ended once this happened? Anyone else run into this?
Found this forum post that discusses a ruling, but also things a player might have missed, which caused this to happen: boardgamegeek.com/thread/2537273/strange-game-end-no-hive-tiles-left-no-endgame-tri
As you can see, I am really far behind my You Tube viewing. The new gig is eating into my free time, and I am trying to finish my novel, and in my spare time, get my house ready to sell. This looks really. I think my wife would like it. I’m going to try to find it for her birthday which is January 31. Thanks again for the great video! Although we are definitely going to call it Honey Butt....
lol, now I'll never not see that.
@@WatchItPlayed you shouldn’t be too hard on yourself, you don’t make that many mistakes. It’s at least a funny one....LOL
Is this game still good with 2 players?
Hey, thanks for the interest. I tend to avoid giving personalized recommendations. What I like, someone else might not. For example, one player might really like this game at 2 players, while another might not. I prefer not to try to guess or suggest at what others will find fun.
I’m the designer so I’m partial but I will tell you that a huge amount of playtests (maybe half) were 2-players. It’s a bit faster but still tight and satisfying in my opinion.
Great game but the honey pieces didn't taste as good as I thought.
Perhaps the next printing will improve on the taste!
Thanks for teaching us, since we are all newbees...
...Im sorry
I'll forgive you. Just this once!
I wanted to get this game when it was on KS, but my wallet disagreed :'(
Now you can get it after KS :)
