The simple game is almost an exact clone of Hey, That's My Fish, a 2003 game designed by Günter Cornett and Alvydas Jakeliunas that used penguins jumping around ice floes. Honey, That's Mine can be played in three flavors: simple, normal, and advanced. Even though the bees fly, they can't cross an open space this rule sets up a game that is much, much more than meets the eye. As they leave a location, that hex is removed from the board. The game uses little honeybee characters that fly across a board of hexagons to collect drops of honey.
