User Reviews

Overall, Hive on iOS is a strong, engaging board game adaptation with solid AI and useful features like iCloud sync, and it shines as a training tool and quick-play experience. However, it is hampered by a lack of in-app tutorials, inconsistent online/multiplayer functionality, confusing expansion pricing, missing save progress, and occasional stability issues. Addressing tutorials, reliable online play, and state saving would significantly broaden its appeal.

Pros

Solid core Hive experience on iOS with a clean, stable port and strong AI/bots
Faithful mobile adaptation of the board game with included instructions
Great for training and improving; addictive quick matches
iCloud syncing / cloud save support improves progress across devices
Online/multiplayer potential is recognized and desired by players

Cons

No tutorial; learning curve is steep and rules feel unintuitive
Online multiplayer is unreliable or unavailable; invites and matchmaking often fail
Expansion monetization is confusing or overly expensive; expansions aren't included where expected
No progress save / state-saving across sessions
Occasional stability/launch problems on some devices or iOS versions

Beetle is such a ridiculous and complicated piece. This game could be fun if it stayed two dimensional.

I love the game but I believe there should be a way to view your previous matches so you can learn from them. I feel this goes along with the philosophy of not having a tutorial. Also what is the AI pass function. It kept passing and let me win.

Overall the game is really good great and simple movement but it is really confusing.For example I don’t understand why I can’t move any of the pieces I just put down, and I also just can’t move the bee, but overall really good game. I just want to put in that I have been playing online on my computer and everything is free, and in here there’s an expansion pack??? I really wish the expansion came for free. Because honestly 10.00 dollars is pretty pricey to just get some bugs, better Ai, and Ui upgrades. But again really good game just please consider the expansion.🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡😎😎😎. 🐞🦟🪲Make these bugs free plz👈
