How does it move exactly? I heard it was able to swap places with other pieces or something is that true?

Yes, there are two moves that you can do with a Pillbug. The first is that it moves just like the Queen, one space at a time. However, instead of it moving, you can move a piece that is touching the Pillbug by placing that piece on top of the Pillbug and then down beside the Pillbug (one up, one down). Here is a good description: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/139666/hive-pillbug. And you get an instructions booklet with the expansion as well.

is this for hive compact version?

It is called the 'Pocket Version" and yes this is the smaller version of the set, not the regular sized version.

Is the white Pillbug pocket piece the same white as the rest of the white pocket pieces?

Yes. Just bought this and it matches the Hive pocket pieces.

Se trata de una expansión para Hive Pocket, un juego estratégico para dos jugadores que guarda ciertas similitudes con el ajedrez en un formato de bolsillo. Hive es un puzzle estratégico donde cada insecto tiene un movimiento diferente. La victoria será para el jugador que logre rodear completamente a la abeja reina del adversario. Por ponerle alguna pega, si no juegas con la expansión del bicho bola, en cuanto dominas el juego, muchas partidas llevarán a empate. Es por eso que considero esta expansión imprescindible, eso sí, aseguraros de comprarla en oferta porque es una barbaidad que una expansión de dos fichas cueste casi como el juego completo.

Das Grundspiel kostet knapp 18€, die Erweiterung, bestehend aus 2(!) Steinen, kostet satte 11€. Das finde ich sehr unverschämt. Haben es als Geschenk gekauft, daher zähneknirschend akzeptiert. Zum Spielen sind die Asseln ganz cool, haben eine Menge Potential und geben dem Spiel neue Wendungen.

Ottima questa espansione che aggiunge l'ultimo insetto (per ora) alla versione pocket, che è a mio parere la versione migliore disponibile in commercio. L'onisco è a mio parere fondamentale per aggiungere ulteriore strategia al gioco, laddove le due precedenti espansioni (zanzara e coccinella) fornivano un aggiunta ma maggiormente votata ad un approccio aggressivo. Con L'onisco si possono introdurre nuove e stimolanti combinazioni basate su un approccio maggiormente difensivo. Miglior combinazione in definitiva per giocare ad hive (che consiglio a chiunque): hive pocket più questa espansione.
