Hexa Path Reviews

Programming skills: regular. Level design: poor. Idea: Good. Esthetics: Simple, a little ugly. Music: the typical free of copyright. Gameplay: repetitive. Good project to start in the development of videogames. 4.5/10

Simple minimalist game that's calming and involves some strategy. It could use better keyboard controls though.

[h1]Short, casual tile-visiting / pathing puzzle game with some original ideas and brain teasers[/h1] [b]As other Nannings titles, [i]Hexa Path[/i] has [url=https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/728270]a free version[/url] available on browser. Steam version has double the number of levels, with bigger, more complex ones in the mix.[/b] [i]Hexa Path[/i] re-visits a basic puzzle idea: visit every tile in the grid once. [h1]Puzzle features[/h1] To spin the idea, [i]Hexa Path[/i] adds teleporters, tiles requiring more than one visits, tiles that need to be visited in certain order, and perhaps as the most interesting one drones that follow or escape from you painting a blocking path while doing so. Puzzles start out as small and introduce the features mentioned above organically, with tiny tutorial-style levels. It feels very easy, and the first few levels were a breeze. Then, the levels start to become bigger and more complex. Some levels are quite brain teasers, taking a bit of thinking (though often trial-and-error will suffice) to find the right solution. [h1]Controls and sometimes the lack of them[/h1] You can operate with keyboard or gamepad but for me, mouse felt the most natural control scheme. My only gripe was the lack of undo button. If you get stuck, you have to restart the whole level. It's a bummer, though the levels are fairly short. [h1]Conclusions[/h1] Free version has 30 levels, easily completed in about 15 minutes. The Steam version doubles the number of levels, adding some bigger and more complex puzzles, though it does not add any new puzzle features. Completing the Steam version took me about 1 hour without guides (dev provides a video walkthrough in the guides section though). It's a decent pathing puzzler. It could be longer still for the price, so I suggest you get it on sale. [url=http://store.steampowered.com/curator/9997062/]~Twistorian Curator~[/url]

Move the blue ship over the hexagonal grid with the mouse. Capture all hexagon tiles to complete the level. A hexagon is captured if it is filled with the same color as your ship, blue. If a tile has a number it means you need to go over it multiple times. If a tile has a letter, for example, “B” you need to capture tile with the “A” first. Green hexxes transports you to another teleport on the board. To make it even more challenging there are enemy ships which are trying to block your movement. Step on an enemy to neutralize their captured tiles. If you are surrounded by captured tiles than your stuck and you better restart the level to retry again.

Hexa Path is a very easy puzzle game. Not a bad one. Still execution of this game is pretty poor, so the review should be 'mixed'. So yes, 60 levels, for a person who plays a bit of logical games most of them will be very easy or easy. Still enough to get relaxed a bit. But I found a problem to change the game's resolution to a prope one. Neither on a full screen nor in a windowed mode i couldn't change a resolution from 640x480. Bad visuals were not a problem for me untill level 55 or 56 where i didn't see how the level looks like since it was widescreened. Somehow I completed the edges blindly on a controller. Then in another level I had to repeat it few times since the lower left cornet hexes were on the same spot as a returm button... Anyway, if you want an hour of relax I recommend this title.

Nice and casual little puzzle game with 60 levels to burn through on a Sunday afternoon. :) Most levels are pretty straight forward so easy achievements for achievement hunters. Logic puzzle game but a few levels are based more on trial and error and remembering the right path for subsequent tries. I found it quite enjoyable and relaxing.
