Description
Swarm is a turn based abstract strategy game where opponents strive to take over the Hive, or board by eliminating other swarms. Game pieces move across a number of hexagonal spaces determined by the number of pieces in the stack (called a swarm), and stack and unstack upon landing on specific spaces.
Opponents are eliminated by landing on their spaces, or "stinging" them. 2-player, 3-player, and 6-player boards are currently available. There are many board variations, but only three are currently in print. There are also a variety of spaces which have different properties to enhance game strategy.
