Summary

Playing the Bee Movie Game feels like slipping into Barry B. Benson’s striped world, where I zip around the hive, race scooters and taxicabs through a bustling New York, and blast obstacles with the quirky Pollinator. The DS version, crafted by Vicarious Visions, lets me switch from frantic high‑speed flight to a clever "Buzz" chain‑reaction, even pausing time with Barry’s reflexes to solve puzzles.

Two‑player minigames add a competitive buzz, and the familiar voices of Jerry Seinfeld, John Goodman, Patrick Warburton and Tress MacNeille make the adventure feel straight out of the movie, turning every level into a sweet, buzzing romp.

Storyline

Barry B. Benson graduates from BU University and heads to the honey factory Honex with his best friend Adam Flayman, where they are slated to work for life. Barry quickly grows restless, feeling that Honex’s endless honey‑making isn’t his destiny. The Bee Movie Game expands on his character by giving him a roster of side jobs—car racing, taxi driving, arcade gaming, food delivery, and even car repair—none of which appear in the film. These extra skills become the backbone of the gameplay as Barry explores the hive and the world beyond.

Determined to see the "outside," Barry joins the Pollen Jocks, a squad of bees that collect nectar from flowers. A veteran Jock trains him to make flowers bloom, harvest nectar, and fend off hornets, wasps, and dragonflies. When a sudden rain forces Barry to seek shelter in the apartment of Vanessa and Ken, he learns that humans regularly steal honey. He storms a grocery store, duels the owner Hector, chases a honey‑laden truck, and documents a honey farm to prove the theft. A swarm of wasps attacks, but Barry repels them, and the bees ultimately defeat the head beekeeper who tries to smoke them out.

Barry and Adam later tail defense lawyer Layton T. Montgomery, overhear a plot at the restaurant La Couchon, and infiltrate Montgomery’s house with Vanessa’s help. Disguised as a fly in a Tron‑like suit, Barry cracks a safe to expose the lawyer’s scheme before battling a hornet ambush. Returning to the grocery store, Hector sends agents to eliminate Barry; he captures Adam in a glass trap. Barry rescues his friend, dodges a sprinkler deluge with his bee reflexes, and escapes, wrapping up the game’s adventurous storyline.
