A Tiny Realm

Place hex tiles. Watch a tiny kingdom take shape. Hex & Hearth is a cozy puzzle where every tile you place fits — or doesn't — against the edges of its neighbors. Roads connect to roads. Rivers flow into rivers. Walls march along castle ridgelines. There's no timer breathing down your neck. No ads cutting your flow. Just you, the hex grid, and 50 hand-crafted little worlds. WHAT YOU'LL BUILD • 50 puzzle levels across 5 themed packs — winding country roads, river deltas, coastal harbors, scattered island chains, and finally a full castle pack inspired by Carcassonne, Krak des Chevaliers, and Mont Saint-Michel. • Bridges over rivers. Watchtowers on hills. Bailey walls around keeps. • Villages with cottages, taverns, market squares, and the occasional cannon. HOW IT PLAYS • Pick up the next tile in your queue, rotate it, and drop it where the edges match. • Early levels teach the language; later puzzles open up into full sandboxes where you place tiles freely. • Get stuck? Undo, restart, or step away — your progress is saved. • Times are tracked. Beat your best, climb the global ranking. WHAT MAKES IT QUIET • No ads. • No energy meters or "wait two hours for hearts." • No microtransactions. • Plays offline. • Portrait. One thumb. Five minutes or an hour — you set the pace. LOCALIZED • English and Portuguese (pt-BR). Made by a small team who wanted to ship a puzzle game their grandmothers would actually finish. We hope you do too.
