APICO is a laid-back beekeeping sim game about breeding, collecting, & conserving bees!
Leave your boring city job behind to return to your family home in Port APICO and get back to your beekeeping roots.
Set in a series of lush environments, APICO uniquely combines resource gathering, biology, and beekeeping minigames, taking ideas from a mix of real-life and fantasy apiculture & floriculture.
On your journey you'll rediscover lost species, cross-breed new bees, and help repopulate the islands.

Developers
APICO is being created by the TNgineers, two brothers - Ell & Jamie, inspired by their love of casual and crafting games.
They wanted to make something relaxing, intriguing, and semi-educational (just don't think about the magical bees). Ell builds nice things and Jamie makes sure he breaks them.
Charity
Bees are integral to our gameplay, as they are to our real-world ecosystem.
We want to promote bee conservation and will be donating a portion of sales towards national and international beekeeping charities.
You can also find other ways to help do you part on our website.
Social
We post regular updates of our development progress on both Twitter, Discord, and Guilded as well as important announcements, stupid GIFs, cute pics of bees - what more could you want?

Celebrate the Spring by Draining Yuplay’s Profit
Spring time always comes with a sense of freshness and revitalization, so we decided to take a risk make a special storewide promotion that would absolutely kill our profit (and probably get our boss angry). All you have to do to participate is make an order of at least 20€ between 17.03.2026 15:00 CET and 23.03.2026 15:00 CET, and you will get a FREE game coming straight out of our pockets…
Even though Friday the 13th is widely considered as an unlucky date, we at YUPLAY are trying to flip the script for that and turn it into a lucky day for you and this time is not an exception to the rule! We are delighted to announce our FRIDAY 13TH promo and you should absolutely read on the article in order to find out how to best take advantage of this campaign and turn your luck in the right direction for the occasion…
