"A Dream Concept with an Unbalanced Reality." As a massive Civilization fan, the pitch for Rogue Hex felt like it was made specifically for me. The idea of blending deep 4X strategy with deckbuilding and roguelike loops is a dream come true on paper, and initially, I was very optimistic about the loop. There is a clear spark of genius in the mechanics, but unfortunately, that excitement quickly faded as the game’s flaws began to overshadow its potential. The first major hurdle is the presentation. Visually, the game is quite difficult to look at. The art direction is a total mess, lacking any sense of cohesion or polish. Between the cluttered UI and the character designs—which I can only describe as hideous—the game feels like a collection of mismatched assets rather than a professional product. The "vibe" is just off, and while the music is passable at best, it does nothing to rescue the drab and uninviting atmosphere. The gameplay is where the most potential lies, but it is currently buried under a mountain of frustration. For a veteran strategy player, the barbarian system is particularly infuriating. They don’t just offer a challenge; they seem to exist outside the rules of the game, scaling at a rate that is consistently ahead of your own technology. This creates an experience that feels less like a fair roguelike "climb" and more like an unbalanced grind where you are punished regardless of your strategy. It is incredibly demoralizing to hit a brick wall every run because the enemies are fundamentally overtuned. I truly believe Rogue Hex shows promise. If the developer can commit to a major balancing overhaul and clean up the visual identity, this could be a standout title in the genre. However, in its current state, the frustration of the balancing and the lack of polish make it a hard pass. It’s a great idea that just isn’t ready for prime time yet.

AI generated content. So what if they're a solo dev? I had high hopes for this game, but then they decided to use the plagiarism engine instead of making placeholder art and staying in EA a little longer. If it was all done instead in the same style of the unit models, nobody would have batted an eye, but now I can't trust whether or not other lazy shortcuts have been taken. If you can't be bothered to make it, I can't be bothered to play it.
ユーザーが定義したこの製品への人気タグ:4X+ローグライクデッキ構築。これはまさしくそのもののゲームだと思う。科学ポイントの蓄積により技術を開放し、そのボーナスとして継続的なリソースの収入や遺物を得る。それと共に選択できるようになるユニットや建造物などのカードをドラフトし、フィールド上にそれらを召喚したり建てたり、あるいはフィールド上の資源をカードに変えたりする。1つの時代で6個(高難易度では7個)の技術を獲得すると、次の時代に移る事になり、以前の時代の技術は通常の方法では獲得できなくなる(過去の技術を開放できるカードや世界遺産もある)。発明ポイントの蓄積により発明へと繋がり、デッキのカードはアップデートや追加のドラフト、削除して圧縮を図ったりもできる。マルチ要素や複数の勢力と言った要素は無く、パンゲア大陸でのプレイヤー勢力VS蛮族の一集団の勝負であり、蛮族を駆逐すると勝利になる(指導者によっては別の勝利方法もある)。日本語は一部でやや奇妙なところや文字化けもあったりするが、プレイに支障をきたす事はほぼ無い。高難易度ではバランスがやや悪く、難易度設定よりも初期立地が全てに近い(StSで言うならば蛮族の拠点が遠くにあるアセ20の方がすぐそばにあるアセ10より簡単という意味)。理由としては蛮族集団は物量押しが凄まじい反面、技術ツリーの発展が遅い為、ゲーム中盤までを耐えきれば確実に勝利できるからである。Civのようなゲームには決して真似できないアホみたいな技術もゲーム終盤には登場する[spoiler]テレポーターはまだギリギリ許せるが、リロールが無限に可能になる量子ビットやユニット1体引き連れて1ターン目に戻れるタイムマシンはさすがに笑う[/spoiler]カジュアルさは自分にはとてもマッチした。 個人的にはもっと光が当たって欲しいゲーム。 以下、序盤のオススメ技術とカード: 釣り→釣るでクジラを選択できると鯨油カードが非常に強力。鯨油カードをプレイして得られるオイルを消費すると、発明で同時に複数のアップデートやドラフトができる(早い話がデッキ改善速度が2倍になる) 通貨→硬貨が非常に便利。金は大抵のリソースの代わりになる。 識字→大図書館を建てると定期的に過去の技術が獲得できる。 光学→遺物「望遠鏡」でフィールドの視界が1マス余分に拡がる為、蛮族の動向を注視しやすい。
Recommending this game feels dangerous. It will consume your thinking as you do one more turn. At first, you'll think it's too easy. Then as you unlock more features you'll think it's not winnable. Then you ponder and come up with ways to win. Then it gets harder. Later, it's mocking you when you thought you had it figured out. So, yes, dangerous is the right word. This game is dangerous.
Тут нет игры. Один и тот же сценарий, 6 фортов, которые спавнят врагов. ИИ не развивается, не строится, тупо спавнит врагов. Усложнения (хексы) открываются по одному за прохождение предыдущего, т.о. надо пройти один и тот же сценарий по по сути одной и той же схеме 20 раз подряд с небольшими последовательными усложнениями. Мне надоело на 5й. По сути автор сделал хорошую песочницу, в которой ты сам себя развлекаешь, придумывая себе сценарии и ограничения. С учетом убогой графики, отсутствия лора и сюжета и общей затянутости (ну где-то часик на одно прохождение) игра надоедает очень быстро. Ее хватит на то чтобы увлечь в первые пару часов и избежать рефанда, но если вы рассчитываете провести тут десятки часов, погружаясь в лор, тестируя различные билды и наслаждаясь геймплеем - вам не сюда. Если появятся новые сценарии, комп начнет строиться и развиваться, подвезут лора, да тупо разрешат открывать хексы не по одному, а по моему выбору - мнение может поменяться. Пока проходите мимо. Попробуйте Лост Эйдолоны - вейл оф зе вич. Тоже не без недостатков, но куда интереснее.
I bought Rogue Hex for a quick look and somehow stopped playing Civ7 ever since. It looks simple, but every decision is meaningful and the “just one more turn” feeling is paramount.
Play Old World instead. chock full of AI generated garbage.
Been playing 4x games since Civ1. This game feels more like a puzzle than an actual 4x game. Tried 4 times and can't even get past the tutorial...
Outstanding, addictive, fun and "One more Turn" compelling. Its never boring as you build your villages into cities, try keep your units alive, try keep the barbarians from the gate and make so many decisions per minute that you feel like a real ruler of your digital land. Highly reccommended.
I'd rather play Hexarchy for a Civ style Deck Builder
