This is not a game, exactly it’s a series because wonderkid development had launched the reverse version of it on 11th December, 2018. I had played many elegant puzzle games, such as kensho is good at immersing players in the nature music’s vide, superliminal is good at breaking the normal thinking, macdows 95 is good at getting surprises to players, etc. Obviously, this one still make a deep impression for me, why?
The answer is it’s good at creating the creative mechanic.
[h1] Charming and tricky mechanics makes wonderful levels[/h1]
Turn-based and tower defense is double elements which seldom be seen in puzzle games and mix them together perfectly isn’t an easy thing, but wonderkid development does it all. Stop triangles which will move one step after you block one hexagon grid is the core of the gameplay. Two types of block ways (single click, double click and one-turn double click)/triangles (one step/double steps), three types of grids (restrict to click, allow to click and portal), three types of magics (freeze, eliminate and cheat) forms in the full version. These are arranging in four chapters orderly and keep the difficulty curve is smooth to make sure players don’t stick on one level too long time.

96, maybe this is a huge number for you, but it’s an appropriate number for level design. Every chapter has its own new mechanic and you can play it with previous mechanics, it’s not only a good way to review all mechanics but also the key to keeping player’s enthusiasm from start to end. Of course, the more mechanics in-game, the more difficult for a developer to alter and implement how many levels be needed to let players master the mechanic and feel how brilliant it’s. Hexa Turn used four chapters to make sure players can learn something new and master at the mechanics-combining levels so that players will not give up in the middle of the process.
[h1] Immersive music and minimalistic art style makes wonderful vide[/h1]
Grey is the middle color between black and white, the origin of gris also from here. These are appeared in many artworks and games, hexa turn is one part of them. Clear but crafty, simple but graceful, strong but delicate. Puzzle game is not only a tool for expressing creative ideas but also a tool for expressing their own opinion about colors applying. I’m happy to see more and more puzzle games make their own music more and more various, immersive and charming. Colors in games will be lost half of soul if without suitable music and audio, it’s suitable for describe it.
[b]At last, If you don’t wanna stop to play it, buy the bundle of hexa-series is a good choice. [/b]
Hope you enjoy it!
