Propolis is a simple, fast, and fun worker placement and engine building game for 1-4 players!

Take on the role of competing medieval bee colonies deploying worker bees and trying to build the most glorious kingdom! It’s got the feeling of a big resource management game experience in a small box that plays in just 30 minutes!

Turns are simple - take one of 5 actions - deploy, fortify, or retreat your worker bees, construct a new structure, or build a palace for your queen!

One of the exciting and unique aspects of Propolis is that the worker placement spots appear on a dynamic market of cards, so your choices are always changing! There is also a unique area control aspect to each of the rows of cards – the player who places the most Worker Beeples wins rewards so the tension and player interaction is especially high, while still being a game where you construct your own realm as you go!
