If there are 3 items in a row they are removed from the board and you score points! In every level you need to reach a certain number of points. You also need to match a certain number of symbols.

Hexkeep is not your average match-3 game. It's a roguelite Match-3 RPG where the board is your weapon: match tiles to strike enemies, cast spells, loot rare gear and buy powerful items, then climb a cursed wizard's tower ruled by deities from Turkish mythology. Every run is a gamble. Match three to attack, chain bigger combos to hit harder, and pray the curse tiles don't bury you before the boss does. The board fights back This is no calm match-3 puzzle. Matches are attacks, fusions and spells. Read the board, line up your chains, and end the fight before it ends you. Borrow the power of gods Strike a pact with deities pulled from Turkish myth. Each one bends the rules of your run a different way, so no two climbs feel the same. Die, learn, climb again A true roguelite: death ends the run and drops you back at the foot of the tower. You come back smarter, with new gear, new spells and a score to settle. Spells, curses and dark bargains Hurl spells across the grid, shatter curse tiles before they spread, or twist that dark magic into a weapon of your own. Loot, gold and a shifty merchant Tear weapons, gems and rare relics from your enemies, then haggle with the merchant until your build breaks the game. A tower with teeth Fight through cursed dungeons and distant regions, dig up secrets, and topple the bosses guarding the floors above. If match-3, roguelike runs and real RPG loot are your thing, Hexkeep will eat your evenings. Climb the tower. Cheat death. Beat the gods.
