The depth is in the chain. Each new line that crosses an earlier one keeps it alive. Keep building, and when the combo resolves, everything you've built pays out. Easy to clear. Hard to chain. Hexia is a hexagon block puzzle game with one mechanic no other hex puzzle has: the cross-placement chain combo. Drag hex blocks, clear lines on the board, and chain the clears for explosive scores. HOW TO PLAY 1. Drag a hex block from the tray onto the hexagon puzzle board. 2. Fill any line of hexes to clear it. 3. Place your next block so its line clear crosses a previous one — that keeps the chain alive. 4. Resolve the chain to bank the combo. FIVE MODES Five hex puzzle modes — two race the clock, three at your own pace. Blitz: Race the clock. Combos earn extra time. Flow: Race the clock. Combos earn time — trust your reads. Breeze: Three pieces, then a fresh hand. Combos do the work. Focus: Plan deliberate combos. Watch them form. Void: Plan deliberate combos. Form them unguided.
