Great Game

Just like the console game. Great music, good controls. The graphics are spot on. Thanks for keeping memories alive for a us Hexic fans.

Great version

Gets more colors way faster than I remember which increases difficulty quicker and I get bored…. But a lovely rendering of the game and I like having a game that only needs a little of my brain while listening to a book. I only play arcade mode
