Slightly different from PC version

The graphics are good and simple, while the background music is tranquil and relaxing. Good way to chill and relax.

Super fun game that gave me nostalgia

If you don’t know, Hexic was a game on the MSN game network, but you probably don’t know it for that version, you most likely know it from the Xbox 360 remake that came with your console, Hexic HD. This game is great. My hands are small so I didn’t have a problem hitting other pieces by accident. One thing that needs work is the sound effects, otherwise, this is a great remake of a classic game.

Controls are wonky

The rotations on the pieces are inconsistent. Which leads to bad combos and ruins strategy. Not sure why they’re wonky but I’ve tested it over and over and you could tap the same square and it’ll rotate an unpredictable direction. Kinda ruins in for me because I do enjoy this awesome time killer

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback! Have you tried doing a long press on the board? It brings up a magnifier indicating which 3 hexagons will be rotated. Also, you can change the direction on the bottom left corner - or swiping left or right on the board.

FAQ

What is Hexic - the original game?

Hexic - the original game is a mobile puzzle game where you rotate hexagonal tiles to match colors and form patterns. The goal is to clear pieces from the board by creating clusters or flowers of the same color.

How do I score points in Hexic?

Points are awarded for clearing clusters of three or more same-colored pieces. Bonuses are given for clearing more than three pieces at once. Special pieces like silver-stars and black pearls also contribute to higher scores and can trigger chain reactions.

Is Hexic - the original game free to play?

Yes, Hexic - the original game is free to download and play. The provided information indicates no in-app purchases or advertisements.

What are the special pieces in Hexic?

Special pieces include silver-stars, formed by arranging six like-colored pieces into a hexagon around a different piece. Silver-stars allow you to rotate surrounding pieces. Forming a flower of silver-stars creates a black pearl, which lets you move three surrounding pieces in specific patterns.

What happens if a bomb appears?

Bombs appear occasionally and must be defused by rotating them into a cluster or flower of the same color before their counter reaches zero. If the bomb explodes, the game is over. Defusing a bomb with a multiplier piece clears all pieces of that bomb's color.
