Here is a complete list of all mechanics related to bees in Bee Swarm Simulator, check them out!
1. Bee Attack
Your bees can attack mobs , and they do this by shooting small red lasers. The damage they deal depends on their attack power. You have regular bee attacks that help all your bees. Then you have specific types like colorless, red , and blue bee attacks that only help matching bees. There’s also a bee attack multiplier that boosts everything after all the additions.

2. Bond
Bond is basically how your bees level up . When you collect pollen, your bees gain bond points. Get enough bond, and they level up, which gives them nice bonuses. Each level above 1 gives your bee:
- +5% gather amount
- +10% conversion amount
- +5% energy
- +3% move speed
You can check your bee’s bond anytime by clicking on its hive slot . The info window shows how much bond you need for the next level.
Mobs have levels too, and your bee’s level affects whether attacks hit or miss. If your bee is the same level or higher than the mob, it’s guaranteed to hit. If your bee is one level lower, it has a 50% chance to hit. Two levels lower means only 25% chance, and it keeps decreasing from there.
3. Emoticons
Emoticons show your bee’s current mood . The mood affects bond gains, move speed, and can even let some bees find certain stickers when collecting.
You will see emoticons above your bees’ heads showing if they like a field or not. If your bee shows a happy face , it loves that field and gains an extra bond. Plus, it moves slightly faster. A sad face means it hates the field, gains less bond, and moves more slowly. No emoticon means it’s neutral.
Here is the list of what every bee likes and dislikes:
4. Energy
Energy is how many actions your bee can do before it needs to rest . Each time a bee gathers pollen, attacks a mob, or sips nectar from a planter, it uses one energy. When a bee runs out of energy, it flies back to the hive and sleeps for 30 seconds to fully recharge. However, there are exceptions:
- Shocked Bee only sleeps for 15 seconds
- Exhausted Bee never sleeps
- Photon Bee never sleeps
You can boost energy through:
- Leveling up bees (each level adds 5% energy)
- Stacks of Polar Power from Polar Bear’s quests
- Energy mutations
- Certain beequips
5. Gifted Bees
Gifted Bees are super valuable in this game. They get x1.5 more collection, conversion , and attack compared to regular bees. Plus, each gifted bee gives your entire hive a special bonus called Gifted Hive Bonus . Gifted bees also have a different appearance and can spawn Inspire Tokens .
How to get a Gifted Bee? You need to use a Royal Jelly or hatch an egg . Every time you do it, there is a 0.4% chance of getting a Gifted Bee. Feeding favorite treats can also make bees gifted, but the chances are tiny:
- Rare bees: 0.0125%
- Epic bees: 0.01%
- Common and Legendary bees: 0.0083%
- Mythic bees: 0.00417%
There is also another way to make a bee gifted, which is by using Gingerbread Bears . They have a 1% chance to do it, which is way better odds.
6. Mutations
These mutations give your bees random stat bonuses . You’ll know a bee is mutated because its level number changes color based on which stat got boosted . The colored number appears both on the hive slot and on the bee’s wings.
Here is how to get mutations in Bee Swarm Simulator:
- Feed your bee a Bitterberry for a 1 in 1,000 chance to get a mutation. If the bee is Radioactive, Bitterberries improve the odds to 1 in 100.
- All Fruits have a 1 in 25,000 chance.
- Royal Jellies, Moon Charms, Star Jellies, and special treats also have a chance to cause mutations.
- Atomic treats guarantee a mutation every time, whether the bee is radioactive or not.
Here are all the mutations your bees can get. The ranges shown are for bees level 20 or below – higher level bees can get bigger bonuses:
| Stat | Chance | Range | Color |
|---|---|---|---|
| % Attack | 17.9% | 5–20% | Red |
| + Attack | 3.87% | 1–2 | Red |
| % Convert Amount | 17.9% | 10–30% | Orange |
| + Convert Amount | 8.55% | 20–80 | Orange |
| % Gather Amount | 17.9% | 10–30% | Light Green |
| + Gather Amount | 8.55% | 2–10 | Light Green |
| % Energy | 17.9% | 10–40% | Brown |
| % Bee Ability Rate | 1.87% | 1–4% | Purple |
| % Critical Chance | 1.87% | 1–3% | Green |
| + Movespeed | 1.87% | 2–6 | Dark Cyan |
| % Instant Conversion | 4.57% | 8–20% | Yellow |
7. Radiation
Radiation gives your bee a temporary radioactive status that lasts for 11 minutes . Bees stay radioactive even if you move them to different hive slots during these 11 minutes. When a bee is radioactive, it has much better odds of getting mutations from Bitterberries, Royal Jellies, Moon Charms, or Star Jellies. It also allows the chance of mutations from feeding special treats.
Radioactive bees glow green. The brightness shows how much time is left. Brighter means more time remaining. The bee’s hive slot also emits green particles. There are various ways to get radioactive bees in Bee Swarm Simulator:
- Feed a bee a Neonberry to make it radioactive.
- If a bee is mutated, it occasionally becomes radioactive, which can spread to surrounding bees.
- Sometimes, bees randomly become radioactive without any trigger.
