Pollen Path
Play Pollen Path free online. Steer a busy bee between three heights and visit the flowers on the recipe card in the right order while dodging all the others.
How to Play Pollen Path
A bee flies steadily across a summer meadow, and columns of flowers drift toward it. The bee can fly at three heights: high, middle and low. You choose which height it is at.
The card at the top shows a short list of flowers to visit, in order. An arrow marks the one you need next. Fly into that flower to sip it and the arrow moves on. When the whole card is done you score a set and get a new card.
Flying into a flower that is not the one you need counts as a wrong flower. Three wrong flowers end the flight. Every column has at least one gap, so there is always a safe height to fly through.
The meadow speeds up and the cards get longer as you complete sets, and more kinds of flower appear.
Controls
Touch
- Tap above the bee to fly up one height, or below the bee to fly down one height.
Mouse
- Click above or below the bee.
Keyboard
- Up and Down (or W and S) move the bee between the three heights. P pauses, M mutes.
Tips and Tricks
- Look at the whole column coming toward you, not just the next flower, and pick your height early.
- Every flower kind has its own petal shape as well as its own colour, so you can tell them apart even if two colours look alike to you.
- When the flower you need is not in a column, head for the gap.
- Avoid moving at the very last moment, when it is easy to slip into the wrong flower.
