Draft:Bee Swarm Simulator

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: Not a single source demonstrates secondary reception of the game. The bar is a little higher for Roblox-style games given that they just don't have conventional releases or reliable coverage other than "how-to" articles. The TheGamer article is a bit of a red herring - it just describes the game briefly. Have any reliable source (see WP:VG/S) said anything about the game itself?

Bee Swarm Simulator (BSS) is a multiplayer idle video game released on the game platform Roblox in March 2018.[1][2] It gained widespread attention for its approach to bee swarms,[3] and how they make money in their hives, from collecting pollen from different fields,[4] to buy items.[5] The game's concurrent user (CCU) records, rounds up to about over 100 thousand players, typically during its "Beesmas" events.[6] The game is owned by its original developer and Bee Swarm Simulator Club, a team owned by Piercen "Onett" Harbut.[7] Players collect pollen with tools and your bees.[4][8] As of May 2021, Bee Swarm Simulator has over 3.2 billion visits.[2]

History

[edit]

The game participated in various Roblox events throughout 2024,[9][10][11] alongside a 2020 Egg Hunt event.[12]

Macroing

[edit]

The phrase "macroing" refers to the practice of using automated programs,[13][14] often known as "bots" or "macros," to carry out operations in a game, frequently to automate repetitive activities.[13][14] Onett has verified that players are permitted to use programs, even though doing so is generally discouraged. Additionally, Bee Swarm players have been utilizing them for years.[13]

Players

[edit]

The highest number of concurrent players Bee Swarm Simulator has achieved is around 200 thousand, at once. Due to the presence of microtransactions in the game and the target demographic typically being young children, there have been instances of children spending large amounts of money on Bee Swarm Simulator.

Whenever there is a Beesmas update to the game, the number of players playing may even triple.
