Bioengineering – meet fascinating life forms and create new ones 

Gathering information about an ecosystem is a crucial part of a bioengineer’s work. You need to treat the life forms of Sota7 with caution and respect – after all, they’re all a part of a larger whole. Extract samples and procure resources carefully to find familiar patterns and understand this world. This will help you to create new fascinating life forms that will be able to easily fit in with those that inhabit it already – and who knows, maybe one of these species holds the key to solving the problems that plague the ecosystem back on Earth? Use innovative in-game mechanics such as allogamy and grafting to create hybrids that could change the world. Unleash your inner scientist and become a master of the art of crossbreeding.

Base building – expand your base of operations 

A true explorer needs a haven to rest and contemplate if they want to succeed. One of the player’s many important tasks in Honeycomb: The World Beyond is to plan and build your perfect modular base – not only for shelter but also a place of experiments, reporting progress, and rest. Discover our artists’ vision of the future, inspired by natural shapes found in Art Nouveau. The modular design of the base isn’t just a visual feature, but also a strategic advantage that allows you to adapt to your changing needs as an explorer and a scientist. Add an extra room or a corridor whenever you want, matching the direction of the expansion to the surrounding area.

Nestled within your base lies a sanctuary of profound significance: the laboratory. Here you can grow as a scientist and bioengineer. Gather resources and create varied laboratory devices to experiment with samples collected during the exploration of the world. The laboratory is not just a place for discovering new life forms – it’s also a space where you grow and nurture plants. Cultivate them to make previously empty rooms alive with fresh greenery, and yield a satisfying harvest – a reward that springs from your commitment, which increases your chances of survival.
