A chemical spill somewhere in rural England has mutated an army of bees into deadly insects. Led by their queen, they are out to destroy every living thing on the planet, including all insects that dare to stop them.

Only Buck Bumble, the only bee not to be turned evil by the ways of the queen, can save the world, and his fellow insects, from total destruction.

Using Buck's weapons, you must shoot down the many swarms of enemy bees, while staying above ground avoiding the hazards below. At times you may have to land on the ground and attack on foot, while certain enemies can only be destroyed by certain weapons.

Also included is a handful of two-player split-screen modes, including Buzz Ball, a soccer-style game where each player controls a Bee while attempting to kick the slightly larger-than-the-bee ball into the other's goal.

The game was built with the rumble feature in mind, allowing the player to feel when they are hit, increasing the realism. This feature of the game was capitalized on by the company Joy Tech, which made an official 'Buck Bumble Pack' which was sold with the game exclusively at Dixons&Currys, however it was a third-party peripheral not licensed by Nintendo. The games soundtrack was composed by Justin Scharvona and consists entirely of UK Garage and House music which at the time of the games release was largely popular in England.
