Welcome Hex Warriors! Hex Takeover is a turned-based strategy game played on different hexagonal boards. The objective is simple: conquer the most tiles to win. How To Play: During your turn tap on any of your tiles to chose your next move. Tiles can be cloned to adjacent spaces or they can jump to further spaces. Landing near opponent tiles will convert their tiles into yours! Cloning and Jumping have different implications on your strategy. Cloning a piece means that you get more tiles of your color on the board. Jumping sometimes could be beneficial if you spot enemy pieces further away but want to conquer them. The game ends when the board is filled up with tiles! Seems easy right? Let's put your skills to the test! Hex Takeover has simple game rules, yet the game can be quite a bit challenging! With different levels and varying difficulties, there are tons of different strategies to explore. Through very satisfying and calming gameplay, explore the map and encounter new enemies and challenges! Can you explore the entire map and unlock new characters to play as?

About

Naval Battle

Two devices. Two hidden fleets. One of you is about to have a very bad afternoon. Naval Battle is the old game of hidden ships, played between two real people — no bots, no accounts, no ads, nothing to buy. Place your carrier, battleship, cruiser, submarine and destroyer on a ten-by-ten grid, then take turns calling shots until one fleet is at the bottom of the sea. TWO WAYS TO PLAY • In the same room — find the other player over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi and fire in real time. No internet at all, so it works on a plane, on a train, or on a beach with no signal. • By post — challenge a friend by name, or take an open seat against anyone, through Game Center. Fire when you feel like it: days can pass between shots and nothing is lost. A notification tells you when the enemy has fired back. ON THE BRIDGE • Your fleet never leaves your device. Each side answers the shots aimed at it, so nobody can peek at anybody's board. • Talk to the other player, or send a flare — a quick reaction that blooms over the water. • Nudge an opponent who has gone quiet. • Amber instruments on dark water: a night-watch signals room, easy on the eyes. FOR EVERYONE • English, Spanish, Catalan and Brazilian Portuguese • iPhone and iPad • Follows your text size • No tracking, and no data collected by the developer You need two devices and two players. There is no one-player mode and there never will be — half the fun is knowing someone on the other side is sweating.
