In Abeja Reina ("Queen Bee"), two players take turns moving their bee pieces on the hexagonal cells of the game board. Whoever eliminates the opponent's queen bee first wins.

The game board depicts a shared hive of sorts, with players starting on opposite sides of the board with a trench between them. The hive spaces hold only a single piece, while the trench can hold two layers of pieces. The queen bee and three workers move only one space to an adjacent hex space; the six drones move "diagonally" along a line leading away from the hex to the next hex. If you move a token onto an enemy piece in the hive, you eliminate that piece from the game.

If you move a token onto a piece already in the trench, you pin that piece; if you move a token onto an enemy that's pinning another piece, you eliminate that enemy token. When moving from the trench, workers and drones can move any number of spaces, allowing for long-range attacks. A queen can never step onto the lower level of the trench. After all, she's the queen!
