5 Hexic stars
Listen. It's Hexic. It's not bloated. It's just great ol Hexic. Give the developer a clap.
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.
BAM! Nailed it!
Exactly the game I was looking for :) well made and well done!
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.
Thanks for making this
Only suggestion is to make everything take advantage of the screen space, ie bigger. It feels like it’s 50% smaller than it needs to be, and I agree with other comments this makes it easy to tap on the wrong parts by accident.
Finally found this game again!
I used to play Hexic HD all of the time on Xbox 360. Much to the confusion of my friends when they would all be playing Halo 3 or CoD. I loved it and tried hard to get all of the achievements.
Anytime I ask people about it they seem to not know what I’m talking about. I’m glad I finally decided to search the App Store and even more so that I found it!
The controls are a bit finicky, you have to be very precise with your touches but it’s not a difficult game so it doesn’t really affect gameplay at all.
So happy to be able to play this again!

Thank you for your feedback! Try using long-touch on the board: it would highlight the hexagons for you that would be rotated on release. You are right, it does not affect the actual gameplay but in timed mode, it could be crucial. Using this method would save that couple of seconds of unnecessary rotation. Have fun!
Classic! Looks and feels awesome!
Fabulous
addicted to Hexic
Love this version .. when are you gonna do Hexic 2 for iPad ?
Love it
Heavy on battery though
Good little game.
I was searching for something like this forever on the app store. Glad I did!
Fun way to pass the time
This game makes you think slightly more than some of the other mindless apps out there. Hey, it's free too; why not?
.
Pros:
-works well overall
-no noticeable glitches
-the latest update gives an optional symbol overlay over each hex color for players with difficulty distinguishing different colors
Cons:
-there's no option to disable tutorials, which is incredibly annoying as they show up each "level"
-there's no way of seeing which hexes you're exactly choosing to flip, and if you're playing on a phone instead of a tablet, you will often end up flipping the wrong hexes or rotating hexes when you don't want to

Great App
Just like the XBOX version. Suggestion: would be nice if you could add a black or dark background vs just white. Thanks!!
Not happy with the new color themes
I liked the old color
Schemes better. Otherwise I still find this game challenging.

Love it!!
Lots of fun and challenges!!
Everything Hexic you need
Hexic is a game I really enjoyed playing on the Xbox. Incredibly simple but addictive game, it's everything the Xbox version is minus the HD textures but that's fine.
Great Game
Very good match game. Just like the old X Box version.
Great game
Been looking for a good Hexic clone for some time on iOS. This is perfect.
Loooove it!
I love arcade mode, so I can just keep playing:)
