Great update, absolutely love the new wings and dungeon.

Nice work with the mini-puzzle mechanic in the dungeons, definitely refreshing.

Also, there's a bit too many propolis in the reward chests? 3 dungeons were able to fill cupboard halfway. This may make it a bit useless when used as trading commodity. Definitely would like to see that on beaver dung needles

I have a minor criticism of the loot items propolis and royal jelly. I appreciate that both can be used as a spice and a food, respectively, but I also feel that the primary function of both is a bit underwhelming. Specifically, the ability to increase a single skep's production of wax/larvae is practically meaningless, since a player who wants to increase production simply builds more skeps. I also appreciate that this comes with a small quality boost, but the stated +1 is not really worth much.

Why not let each, in addition to the stated benefits, also offer a small chance for the skep in question to produce a piece of beebread? That would actually give an incentive to keep the modified skep in use permanently, whereas now the skep will inevitably be retired when quality demands. Make the beebread chance small but reliable, 20%, maybe, so that for every full wax harvest it spits out a random piece of random quality beebread.
