Our take on Hexa
Hexa departs from puzzle games built around moving pieces directly toward a goal. Its central challenge is arranging hexagon side behaviors—links, conversions, splits, and switches—to control how projectiles travel.
What is Hexa?
Hexa is a puzzle game about routing beams to their destinations through hexagonal boards.
Different side types change how projectiles move: links teleport them, converters teleport them and change their type, splitters divide a stream into two, and switches allow passage when receiving the requested projectile type. The game includes 33 levels and a random level generator for playing random levels. Its controls are simple, while the puzzles range from straightforward to complex. A level editor lets players create stages and share them with the Steam community. The puzzles center on arranging side interactions so each beam reaches its destination.
