We're talking about the latest game from Stonemaier games today, Apiary. The bee colony creating, worker rotating bump 'em out of the way game that's out now. As a middle weight complexity game, how does it compare to the others from Stonemaier or the other games that it's similar to in mechanism and detail? And does it have enough asymmetry for me?

Let's talk!
Thanks for watching!
