The beehive game was created for the Mõniste Rural Life Museum as a portable game suitable for outdoor conditions. This game can be placed on the ground in a disassembled U-shape or folded into a book, where the two smaller top covers visually depict a cross-section of a beehive on one side and the developmental stages of bees on the other. When disassembled, the illustrations remain on the arms of the U-shape behind the game. To keep the structure upright, there are supports behind the middle wall.
What makes the game special is the magnetized surface, to which various magnetized characters attach, ranging from different roles of bees to their enemies.
The product development process included:
- Creating the game concept
- Drawing illustrations
- Developing functionality, including the magnetic solution
- Selecting materials
