The pillbug moves one space at a time, but has a special ability it may use instead of moving. The special ability allows the pillbug to move an adjacent piece (friend or enemy) two spaces up onto itself and then down into another empty space adjacent to itself. Review: Una expansión imprescindible aunque muy cara. - Se trata de una expansión para Hive Pocket, un juego estratégico para dos jugadores que guarda ciertas similitudes con el ajedrez en un formato de bolsillo. Hive es un puzzle estratégico donde cada insecto tiene un movimiento diferente. La victoria será para el jugador que logre rodear completamente a la abeja reina del adversario. Por ponerle alguna pega, si no juegas con la expansión del bicho bola, en cuanto dominas el juego, muchas partidas llevarán a empate. Es por eso que considero esta expansión imprescindible, eso sí, aseguraros de comprarla en oferta porque es una barbaidad que una expansión de dos fichas cueste casi como el juego completo.

I heard it was able to swap places with other pieces or something is that true?** A: Yes, there are two moves that you can do with a Pillbug. The first is that it moves just like the Queen, one space at a time. However, instead of it moving, you can move a piece that is touching the Pillbug by placing that piece on top of the Pillbug and then down beside the Pillbug (one up, one down). Here is a good description: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/139666/hive-pillbug. And you get an instructions booklet with the expansion as well. **Q: is this for hive compact version?** A: It is called the 'Pocket Version" and yes this is the smaller version of the set, not the regular sized version. **Q: Is the white Pillbug pocket piece the same white as the rest of the white pocket pieces?** A: Yes. Just bought this and it matches the Hive pocket pieces. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Una expansión imprescindible aunque muy cara. *by R***T on 26 September 2023* Se trata de una expansión para Hive Pocket, un juego estratégico para dos jugadores que guarda ciertas similitudes con el ajedrez en un formato de bolsillo.

Steinen, kostet satte 11€. Das finde ich sehr unverschämt. Haben es als Geschenk gekauft, daher zähneknirschend akzeptiert. Zum Spielen sind die Asseln ganz cool, haben eine Menge Potential und geben dem Spiel neue Wendungen. ## Frequently Bought Together - Smart Zone Games Hive Pocket Pillbug Expansion for 96 months to 1188 months - Smart Zone Games Hive Pocket Portable Strategic Board Game for 2 Players – Includes Ladybug & Mosquito Expansions – Compact Travel Version of The Award-Winning Hive Game - Hive: Ladybug Expansion by Gen42 Games --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/295204415-smart-zone-games-pillbug-pocket-expansion-game](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/295204415-smart-zone-games-pillbug-pocket-expansion-game) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
