Turing's Hive

A programming puzzle game where you build computation from simple rules. Route numbers through a honeycomb grid, solve puzzles to create new computational building blocks, and work your way from +1 to arithmetic, algorithms, and beyond. REDISCOVER FORGOTTEN MATHEMATICS Humanity is long gone, but fragments of their mathematics remain buried in an ancient semantic archive. As a bee researcher, your task is to reconstruct these forgotten concepts—not by reading their formulas, but by making them work again. Guide workers carrying numbers across a honeycomb grid. Lay down pheromone trails, place computational cells, branch their paths, and coordinate multiple workers to transform each input into the required output. Begin with simple rules like +1, −1, and comparisons. Combine them into more complex operations, and turn each discovery into a new building block for the puzzles ahead. A HIVE WITHIN ITSELF A hive can be embedded within one of its own cells—and within that hive, another. This paradoxical structure is called Recursion. Workers carry numbers between these nested layers, turning the impossible geometry of the hive into a powerful computational tool. MORE THAN ONE WAY Each puzzle defines what goes in and what must come out. Everything in between is yours to design. Find a solution that works—or find a better one.
