Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.13/day in the week to Aug 3 → 0.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

还可以，蛮好玩的
Initially couldn't progress past great wastelands. Demo worked fine, but then got stuck as soon as I tried the purchased version. After some trial/error and looking at the walkthrough I was able to get going again. Recommend yes for $10. Dev is responsive and I'm looking forward to the more polished version.
⭐ The Hive Puedes encontrar el análisis completo de este juego y muchos otros en mi canal de YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KousoGames 📖 Datos Generales The Hive es un juego de estrategia en tiempo real con elementos ligeros de RPG, donde controlas una colonia de criaturas insectoides que debe crecer, recolectar recursos, construir estructuras y sobrevivir en un entorno hostil. Cada misión ofrece un nuevo mapa, pero bajo una estructura similar: explora, expándete, mejora tus unidades y elimina a los enemigos. El título presenta una campaña compuesta por misiones individuales que, aunque visualmente bien ambientadas, comparten un patrón bastante uniforme. Las mecánicas son accesibles y el juego en sí es sencillo de entender, con una curva de dificultad bastante suave. ✍️ Opinión personal En cuanto al rendimiento, no he tenido ningún problema. El juego funciona con fluidez, sin caídas ni errores, incluso en equipos más modestos. Eso es algo de agradecer. Como experiencia general, The Hive cumple sin más. No es un juego especialmente complejo ni profundo. Desde el principio queda claro cuál es la rutina: recolectar, construir, explorar, combatir y repetir. El bucle de juego es funcional, pero se vuelve predecible y algo repetitivo a medida que avanzas. Se nota que es un título de otra época: el diseño visual y las mecánicas tienen ese aire de estrategia clásica, sin demasiados adornos ni innovaciones. Aun así, si lo que buscas es algo relajado para echar un rato sin complicaciones, puede ser una opción bastante decente. ✅ Conclusión The Hive no aspira a revolucionar el género, pero ofrece una experiencia RTS accesible y estable. Es ideal para quienes quieran un juego de estrategia sin complicaciones, con partidas tranquilas y un ritmo moderado. Le falta variedad y profundidad, pero para pasar el rato puede funcionar bien.

The last time I played a new real-time strategy game… well, yesterday actually. But before that, it had been at least ten years. Anyway – I gave The Hive a try. It’s not a bad game. Imagine taking the style and atmosphere of WarCraft 3 (plus the light RPG elements), then making the playable race almost a 100% copy of the Zerg, and you’ve got The Hive. Unfortunately, there’s no multiplayer or skirmish mode – only a PvE campaign. Still, it’s fairly well put together, with a story and some mission variety. If only the units weren’t complete one-to-one copies of the damn Zerg. Right now the game is just €5 on Steam, and at that price it’s a steal. But once the offer’s gone, the price jumps to €20 – which is way too much for a game that, at best… is just “okay.” Video: https://youtu.be/IlYGNb95uYI
Got on sale for $5. It's okay for that price; I definitely wouldn't pay $20. It's janky. There are levels where AOE markers end up underneath the terrain, and my bugs would sometimes freeze in place and couldn't be made to move at all. Controls are...iffy. But it did entertain me for a day, and it's not super long or anything (10 levels). Maps are nice and big, and you can get a proper swarm of 100+ bugs going.
Has the charm of older RTS games!
норм
还不错，虫族大军指挥起来很有感觉，代入感很强玩到，就是后面像是dota
It reminds me of the old Alien RTS in good way. You control the hive, building numbers, waiting till the right moment to strike. It's a pretty normal RTS in the same vein as Starcraft. Not my normal cup of tea but I enjoyed the aesthetic and the RTS elements seemed to be consistent. The tutorial level was a bit a bare bones and I kind of had to figure everything out on my own but it was simple enough. I recommend this if you are a fan of RTS, Alien, The Hivemind, join the hive, the hive needs you, the hive is nothing without you.
