Hexhive Puzzle

Queens, but on a hexagon. Place crowns on a hexagonal board so that every line and every colour region holds exactly one. Three axes instead of two, which is what makes it a different puzzle rather than the same one with new art. Every puzzle has exactly one solution, and every one can be reached by pure deduction. No guessing, ever. A HINT THAT TEACHES Most puzzle games hand you an answer. This one finds the next cell you can rule out, marks it, and explains why — highlighting the region or line the reasoning came from. Five rules, ordered from easiest to hardest, so you always get the most understandable explanation available. You come away knowing something you did not know before, which is the only kind of help worth having. WHAT IS IN IT • A new puzzle every day, in three board sizes • Unlimited random puzzles whenever you want one • Four themes, including one built for three-ink printing and one that is neon on near-black • Auto-mark: cross out the cells a crown already rules out • Drag to mark a run of cells at once, undo the whole run in one step • Pause that actually covers the board, because stopping the clock alone is not a pause • Streaks and best times FREE, WITH ADS Three free hints per puzzle, then a short ad buys another. A break between every five solved puzzles. One optional purchase removes both and makes hints unlimited — forever, one payment, no subscription.
