Using the Pollinator, players can Blast through obstacles or they can Buzz to cause a chain reaction. Players get to Stop Time by using Barry's bee reflexes.

What it’s like
Bee Movie Game is a lighthearted, licensed action-adventure that prioritizes kinetic fun over narrative depth. Players control Barry B. Benson as he navigates a vibrant, cartoonish New York City and the bustling hive, utilizing flight mechanics, vehicle races, and time-stop abilities to bypass obstacles. The experience feels like an interactive highlight reel of the film’s most energetic moments, offering a playful tone that mirrors the movie’s slapstick humor. While the story is largely a recitation of the film’s events rather than an original tale, the gameplay loop remains engaging through varied movement styles and mini-games. It serves as a whimsical, accessible platform for fans to physically embody the protagonist’s journey, focusing on sensory delight and simple challenges rather than complex storytelling or strategic depth.
