* Casual Connect Europe 2013 Indie Showcase Winner! "The whole casual/hardcore distinction needs putting to rest, perhaps. HUEBRIX is the latest puzzle game that looks casual, but has the potential to develop into a full-blown hours-a-day addiction." - The Guardian UK "HUEBRIX is a quiet pleasure – a soothing rainy Sunday afternoon to Super Hexagon’s hedonistic Saturday night." - Edge (7/10) "There’s a lot to love about HUEBRIX. The gameplay is addictive, the controls are smooth and responsive and the music helps calm the nerves, the graphics are simple and have a pixelated retro appeal to them that is enjoyable." - 148Apps.com - 4/5 stars "HUEBRIX is a solid puzzle effort" - PocketGamer - Silver Award - 8/10 "Almost to a tee, HUEBRIX manages to create this (the perfect puzzle game) atmosphere." - Gamezebo.com - 4/5 stars "Like a crossword puzzle, it’s about teasing your brain, not pumping your adrenalin." - slidetoPlay.com - 3/4 Stars - Good "HUEBRIX wants your brain. Not in a zombie-eating kind of way, but in a cool, challenging way." - Jayisgames.com "HUEBRIX is a puzzle game that requires the player to be aware and adventurous." - AppSpy.com (4/5) "HUEBRIX brings a fresh face to mobile puzzle games for a head-scratching good time." - DigitalSpy (4/5) ____________________________________________________________________ HUEBRIX brings the "Puzzle" back to Puzzle Games. This game will test your visual, spatial and logical senses. Solve Levels by dragging paths from blocks to fill out the puzzle grid. However, the blocks only give you paths of a specified length. Special blocks determine the orientation of paths, acting as clues and challenges at the same time. HUEBRIX has 400+ levels, segregated by skill level for your convenience. Think you have it in you?
