Hextris

Rotate a central hexagon as colored blocks fall toward its edges. Match groups of the same color before the stacks reach the outside boundary in this compact, fast-paced puzzle game.

The good stuff

Managing six faces at once creates a satisfying shift between planning and quick reactions. A useful match clears space, but it can also change where the next block needs to land.

Your first few moves

1. Rotate the hexagon to choose which face receives an incoming block.
2. Connect at least three same-colored blocks to clear them.
3. Watch the tallest stack as well as your next possible match.

Before you jump in

The official press kit describes matches of three or more same-colored blocks. Follow the instructions in the game for keyboard or touch controls.
