Every arrow needs a way out. Jester Hex is a hex-based tap away puzzle that is easy to learn and genuinely hard to master. Tap a block and it moves in the direction of its arrow, but only when the path ahead is clear. Remove the right blocks, uncover the layers beneath them, and keep solving until the entire board is empty. 6,000 PUZZLES TO MASTER Journey through 60 chapters and 6,000 unique, solvable levels. Boards grow from a handful of blocks to massive puzzles stacked up to six layers deep. SIMPLE RULES. DEEP PUZZLES. - Follow the arrows - Find an open path - Clear blocks from the board - Reveal hidden layers - Solve the entire puzzle No guessing required.

Chain quick clears into combos, and watch your progress climb chapter by chapter on the Hex Journey map. POWER THROUGH TOUGH PUZZLES Need some help?
