Our verdict

The Great Bee-scape is a kids’ version of the EXIT puzzle games, for 1 to 4 players aged 5 and up, listed at $17.95. Players solve picture riddles to collect pollen and help Betty Bee fly home. The maker lists a play time of about 20 minutes, and the box is small enough to travel.

It is a 2026 release and had no reviews at Target when we checked, so we have no owner feedback to report. The maker’s images show riddle cards and a board made of picture tiles rather than reading-heavy clues.

It suits a family game night with kids aged 5 to 8 and a grown-up to guide. Skip it if your child wants a game to replay often; puzzle games like this are usually most fun the first time through.
