About HexBat

This is a 2 player turn-based strategy game. Think chess meets turn-based RPGs.

Each player's team is made up of one character from each of these positions:
-Forward (Tank) - Usually has high health and damage while also being the slowest character.
-Flex (DPS) - Is flexible with how each character plays but is usually the fastest character.
-Support (Healer) - Has support abilities that enable other characters.

Characters take turns depending on their speed and generate Action Points at the start of each of their turns.

Action Points (AP) are used for either Actions (Attacks / Healing) or Moving (1 AP per tile).
Any unspent Action Points are carried over to the character's next turn up to a maximum of 6 AP.

Hex Grids consist of up to a maximum of 25 tiles of Five different types:
-Spawn: Spawn point for a Character (turns into a grass tile during game).
-Grass: Basic tile with no direct effects.
-Mud: Costs an additional AP to traverse.
-Molten: Take 10 Damage at the end of Character's turn.
-Corrupt: Doubles all Damage Character receives.

You can create your own custom Hex Grids with the in-game editor.

Victory Condition:
First player to kill 2 characters of the Opponent's team.

There's a number of classes players (if there were any) could use to make a team to fight teams from other players (if there were any). There's also a map editor players (if there were any) could use to make their own maps. So, HexBat is a dead PvP game. Why did it fail? It's video game autopsy time! [i]Almost every PvP exclusive game on Steam fails.[/i] Only a tiny proportion of them "go viral". This game failed for many of the same reasons those others fail. The chief of which is the developer thinking that their game will "go viral" without actually creating any reason for it do so. Competition amongst PvP centric games is extreme, and there's only a finite player base to appeal to. This game failed to reach any kind of critical mass and died as a result. L…

Fun for about 10 minutes. Would benefit from a tutorial and/or bots.

Castlevania Belmont's Curse price: which edition to buy

The Castlevania Belmont's Curse price splits in two: Steam charges full list, authorised resellers a quarter less. Our record says that 25% has not moved since June, and is the floor.

Hogwarts Legacy price history: where the floor really is

Our Hogwarts Legacy price history runs to 100 daily readings and a $3.99 median. Why the sub-dollar figure in search results is noise, and what to actually pay.

Starfield price history: the sub-$20 window, and who set it

Our Starfield price history shows one reseller set the all-time low over five weeks in late summer 2026. What a good price looks like now, and why Game Pass comes first.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Rust price: why the cheap keys vanished, and when to buy

The Rust price has two answers: an official one that barely moves, and a reseller one that sat in single digits for 95 days and then disappeared. Our record shows both.

Planet Zoo 2 price: which edition, and when it gets cheaper

Planet Zoo 2 is out today. The Planet Zoo 2 price splits two ways, the cheap pre-order keys stopped existing three weeks ago, and the original got dearer as the sequel landed.
