Our take on Globesweeper: Hex Puzzler

The defining detail is the globe-shaped board with gaps. This incomplete surface changes the patterns formed by nearby and connected tiles, providing the central constraint for its logic puzzles.

What is Globesweeper: Hex Puzzler?

This logic puzzle game applies a spherical Minesweeper concept to globes with gaps rather than solid surfaces.

The open spaces create new patterns that players must learn to solve the puzzles. Eight mechanics add different clue types, including tiles that count connected reactive tiles, tiles that count reactive tiles across a surrounding area, and tiles that count separate groups. The mechanics become more complex as progress continues, especially when several are combined in the same puzzle. Every level is solvable without guessing. The game includes 92 levels to complete, centered on spherical boards and increasingly complex combinations of logic mechanics.
