Hive Carbon: The Pillbug - Rules of Play says:

Hive is a game you want to win but struggle to play - the clinking pieces are so gorgeous you'd prefer to keep them in your hands! Add that to the game's use of tactical strategy and it's a miracle a game ever gets finished! Each player is assigned counters that feature various minibeasts. Every insect has a different function in the game, e.g. the grasshopper can jump forward over counters, but only in a straight line, while the beetle can climb on top of other counters to freeze them still. The first player to surround their opponent's Queen Bee with assorted creatures is the winner and new leader of all creepy crawlies! It's nature's chess!

The Pillbug expansion adds a new piece that may move adjacent pieces instead of itself!
