"They say you have a gift for beekeeping - pah! You may have them fooled, but you have yet to impress me. Pass these tests and maybe I'll recommend you to the Apicademy."

Quests are missions the player can complete for rewards. There are two types of quests, chapters in Grandpa's Guide and tasks at the Noticeboard. Both types grant the player a reward when the requirement item/s are met.

To meet the requirement the player needs to have the items in their inventory or any open menus when trying to hand in the quest. Book quests do not use up the requirement items, however Noticeboard quests do.

Noticeboard Quests

Noticeboard quests are accessed by the Noticeboard in town, and are split into 3 categories. Each category has 5 quests that are predetermined, after which the player can choose to keep doing the quests indefinitely and new ones will be randomly generated.

After the 5th quest the player will unlock an Achievement and a matching Plushie, but can still choose to carry on indefinitely.



Beenjamin's Tests

Set by Dr Beenjamin BhD, these quests ask for a bee with specific traits that are not found naturally on that species, encouraging the player to experiment with cross-breeding and inheritence

Quest No. Set By Dialogue Requirement Reward
1 Dr Beenjamin BhD They say you have a gift for beekeeping - pah! You may have them fooled, but you have yet to impress me. Pass these tests and maybe I'll recommend you to the Apicademy. A Common Bee with Nocturnal Behavior 1-5 of a random Special Produce
2 Dr Beenjamin BhD This one should be child's play to someone of your... skill. If you solve this one, maybe you'll stop wasting my time and be able to help me with some real research! A Verdant Bee with an Unstable Stability 1-5 of a random Special Produce
3 Dr Beenjamin BhD Here. This particular problem was the subject of my Thesis, the basis of my research - if you can't get your head around this, you're no use to me! No shortcuts! A Regal Bee with a Rapid Lifespan 1-5 of a random Special Produce
4 Dr Beenjamin BhD Your research has proven adequate thus far, {PLAYER}. Hmm. Barnabee has been working on this particular problem and has yet to solve it - perhaps you should take a look with your... unique perspective? A Twilight Bee with a Fastest Productivity 1-5 of a random Special Produce
5 Dr Beenjamin BhD Right, {PLAYER}, take a look at this - do you see the issue? It's a tricky one, for sure. Honestly, I'm at an intellectual stalemate on this one and I'm tired of wasting my tenure on it... A Crystal Bee with a Swarming Fertility 1-5 of a random Special Produce
6+ Dr Beenjamin BhD What more do you want from me! You have my recommendation! What do you mean you're doing this for fun? Is my life's work fun to you! Fine, if you insist, here are some of my unsolvable problems. A random bee species with a specific trait 1-5 of a random Special Produce

Beenjamin will never ask for a specific Climate, instead Barnabee will ask for this in their quests in the "Help Wanted!" noticeboard quests



Help Wanted!

Set by various NPCs, these quests ask for a variety of items, some crafted, some bees. Each NPC has a different pool of things they want and a different pool of rewards. After the 5th quest the order of NPCs is kept, but the requirements and rewards are randomised.

Quest No. Set By Dialogue Requirement Reward
1 Beetrix Hey, {PLAYER}, are you busy? Someone from the Mainland has placed a huge online order and... I don't think I can fill it! Look, this would really help my business grow, {PLAYER}, could you help me out? 4, 8, 16, or 20 of one of the following items: , , , , , , , , or A random stone tool (axe, hammer, spade, pickaxe)
2 Bobbee Hello {PLAYER}, I hope this finds you well. Skipper informed me (very loudly) that he is looking to trade some of our machines to the Mainlanders, would you be able to help make some? 1 of the following machines: , , , , , , , , , , or a 1, 3, 5, or 10
3 Abbee Uh, beekeeper? My plants and I need your help! I'd do it myself but I can't leave them unsupervised... you understand! 4, 8, 16, or 20 of a random Flower or Seed 8, 16, 24, or 32 of a random Dye
4 Barnabee Hey, hotshot! Say - are you busy? Got a real doozy from the Professor and I just can't seem to solve it! You wouldn't mind taking a shot would you? You'll get a kick out of it, I swear! A random bee species with a climate other than what it naturally spawns with 1, 2, or 3 of a random Frame
5 Merchant Fancy doing a fella a solid, stranger? No discounts, mind... 1, 2, or 3 of a random Bottled Liquid A random Music Track
6+ One of the above NPCs but in the same order, i.e. 6 is Beetrix, 7 is Bobbee etc Same as above Same as above Save as above

The Merchant's quests are a great way to get tracks for cheap, as bottles are usually a lot cheaper / easier to produce, however the tracks are random and ignore if you have already received that track before.



Captains Orders

Set by Skipper, these quests ask for increasingly higher quantities of Apicola. Based on the amount of Apicola handed in the player is give an equal amount of Mainlander Money which sells for the most out of all items in the game. By making Apicola and handing it in through these quests the player can easily make a lot of money

Trivia

  • Quests in the book used to originally give XP that would level up the player. XP was also gained from breeding new bees and was used to unlock items in the shop before it was changed to use the number of bees discovered for gating items.
  • Originally Apicola was called Mead, but was changed to avoid a mature rating from the ESRB board
  • Skipper's dialogue makes it questionable if the Apicola actually reaches the mainland or not
