Hivesters

The Kingdom suffered its fair share of blights and plagues but from each it came out strong as always. Peaceful, and plentiful it awaits its next harvest. Nobody could predict what would come next, once resting in the depths of the earth. Now awoken… and hungry.

Hivesters is an RTS where you herd an ever-growing swarm of wheat-eating bugs. Attack the enemy’s defenses at its weakest point to get to the tasty crops and multiply your numbers.
