Vivi Race

Vivi is a bee fairy who has lived on a faraway planet for a long time.
There was a time when they thrived, but now they have lost much of their technology and live scattered.
They used to avoid contact with outsiders, but now, as the planet gets more polluted and there are fewer Vivis, they have started to trade resources to survive.
Build a new hive, make it prosper, and forge a future.


Vivi are divided into two types: Royal Vivi and Common Vivi.
Royal Vivi lay eggs to spread their offspring and have very long lifespans. They mainly lead the Common Vivi, but have poor working skills and move slowly.
Common Vivi are fast movers, but they have very short lifespans and cannot reproduce.


Vivi are skilled in building and gardening and generally have cheerful personalities, but they lack combat abilities and have almost no talent for mining.
They also have no interest in romance and instinctively fear fire, fleeing at the sight of it.
Vivi are used to living in groups, treating barracks as if they were their personal rooms, and are minimally affected by the death of a comrade.


Vivi grow much faster than humans. To ensure that the fast-growing Vivi develop their skills efficiently, consistently feed them rice cakes made from pollen and honey.
To raise a new Royal Vivi, you must feed them expensive royal jelly from a young age.

Vivi's genetics mutate very quickly, with most born with random mutation factors.
They can pass these mutation factors to their offspring, allowing for more diverse traits with each generation.
Breed Vivi with strong genes to develop even more powerful Vivi.

As you play the game longer, you will need to consider how to manage older Vivi whose abilities have declined.


Vivi gather honey and pollen from flowers to secure food and resources.
Humans can also gather like Vivi if they are equipped with the right gear.
Gathering does not damage the plants and can even help them reproduce.



Vivi use a cream produced by their bodies to quickly build their homes.
This cream can be hardened into beeswax, or used to form temporary walls that are then refined and dried to create sturdy walls.
Beeswax can replace stone or wood in various construction applications.


Vivi compensate for their lack of technological and combat abilities with unique arcane plants.
These plants, cultivated using Vivi's special techniques, produce and consume a unique resource called 'mana' under certain conditions.
Each type of arcane plant has its own unique functions, ranging from basic infrastructure like heating and cooling to defensive turrets and batteries.

Optimize your settlement by cultivating various arcane plants.
Even if there are no Vivi in your settlement, you can acquire arcane plants by purchasing them, bringing in materials to grow them, or even obtaining them through raids.


Although Vivi's technology is limited, they have developed weapons specialized for defense.
Most of Vivi's weapons are coated with poison, which can intoxicate opponents and are particularly effective in defensive situations.
Some Vivi also use very unusual weapons, the workings of which are difficult to understand.


Vivi hives are built in unique shapes and contain many items, yet they are equipped with strong defenses.
Vivi generally avoid combat and never initiate attacks, but they will fiercely retaliate if their hives are threatened.


Titanic hornets are creatures that appeared after outsiders arrived on the planet.
They are instinctively drawn to areas populated by Vivi but can also appear occasionally in other regions.
With sturdy exoskeletons, powerful jaws, and quick movement, these hornets attack anything in motion as they move in groups.
Killing or butchering these hornets yields wings, which are used as high-quality material for Vivi's advanced equipment.


We offer two starting scenarios, but even if you choose a different scenario, you will have opportunities to encounter Vivi during gameplay.


There is a Royal Vivi who hasn't grown properly for some unknown reason, different from typical Royal Vivis.
Even though this Vivi is a Royal, it looks different and was pushed away from its hive.

Follow this Vivi's difficult journey to build and thrive in a new home.
You start with this unique Royal Vivi. It's a bit challenging, but a great way to see the special skills of different Vivis.


There are four scattered Vivis from a collapsed hive. They have their personal equipment but lack supplies and, most importantly, they don't have a Royal Vivi.

Hatch a hard-earned Vivi egg into a Royal Vivi and rebuild a new hive.
You start with four Common Vivis, and while it's similar to typical RimWorld scenarios, Vivis have very short lifespans, so you'll need to plan carefully.
