## Description
Sweetwater Grove is buzzing with activity, and with the arrival of autumn, Queen Bee isn't one to rest! She's assigned new tasks to her colony: harvesting seasonal fruits, decorating the hive with colorful leaves, storing nectar for winter, and even organizing a festival to honor retiring workers. Honey Buzz: Fall Flavors introduces five new modules that you can mix and match to add a special twist to the base game. Want to focus on fruits? The Fall Fruit module lets you gather apples, pears, and pumpkins, sell them, or use them for special orders. Prefer a more aesthetic approach? The Autumn Leaves module adds a decoration element with scoring that varies based on the current foliage card. If preparing for winter is your priority, the Nectar Caps module allows you to protect your nectar for extra points, but at the cost of honey production. And for a touch of farewell, the Harvest Festival module lets you retire your workers with honors. Plus, to keep track of time, a new sunset board marks the game's progression towards its end. Get ready for a harvest season filled with new strategies and challenges!
