It looks rather simple, and like it should be easy enough to defeat AI opponents. The problem is that since the game is so basic, I could see myself overlooking obvious moves that would both decimate my opponent or cost me the match. “Easy to learn, hard to master,” came to mind when I checked it out, but since others weren't raving about unfair or bogus AI, they're either all brilliant, or the game isn't stacked against the player. [h1]Gameplay[/h1] Anyone who has OCD might be somewhat irked by HX due to all of the arrows on the tiles facing directions haphazardly. There's little rhyme or reason to them per se, but each player in the match is assigned a color and portion of these preset tiles on the board. Your goal is to take control of the opponents' tiles, which is dete…

Hextremely fun puzzle game at times, and overall never repetitive with all the goals and challenges. However, there's 1 concern: the more you beat, the more coins you get; the more power-ups you can unlock, and with all these power-ups, challenges can be rendered uncomplicated easily and early in! Now, of course you can decide not to use power-ups, but there's no incentive for doing so, hence you will prefer to 'cheat' more ... This made me decide to give a lot of the challenges a rest (for now), because they turned out a bit unsatisfying sometimes. I also ended up with a lot of useless coins, having unlocked all power-ups sooner than I wanted actually. Other than that, definitely a neat Turn-based Strategy game in which the developer [i][insert one of my favourite birds][/i] put a lot of thought — down to the last detail. I also had fun with the Level Editor that works flawlessly, and there's even a validation screen, so to prevent random stuff to be published. Last but not least, a few notes: - There are 3 challenges per level, but if you want to play the next in the row other than the last/3rd, pressing [i]Continue[/i] won't bring you there and you have to quit to the level se…

Hexteria is a great puzzle game. It's simple yet strategic gameplay always has you thinking about what tile you should turn next, and what move will get you one step closer to winning (even if it looks like you're going to lose). The campaign offers challenging matches against an AI whose difficulty increases the more you progress. Multiplayer matches are certainly fun, and with the addition of being able to use your own maps or other's created in the level editor, as well as randomized maps it makes the game never feel too repetitive. The graphics are smooth and clean, the sound effects are very much satisfying and the soundtrack is calm and fitting. A magnificent puzzle game, perfect if you like turn based puzzle games. Or hexagons

I'm not usually one for puzzle/strategy type games, but this one has lil' powerups that can turn a match around in your favour, and that made it actually pretty fun for me! If you like strategy games, you'll probably like this. If you don't, there's still a chance you'll enjoy it!

Addictive and challenging game. The challenges with each level makes you replay the match until perfection. \ Would really like a mobile variant of this game.

loved the style so much fell in love with the game
