Bend your mind with this strategy game and stop the spread of the hex virus before it gets out of control.
You’ve been developing a vaccine for the 6 deadliest viral threats the world has ever faced. While testing the effectiveness of the vaccine on live samples, the lab’s safety equipment failed. Contain the hex experiment, prevent a major outbreak, and find the cure.
Objective:
At the beginning of the game, you are given a goal. This is the number of pieces you must have of your color when the board is full in order to progress to the next level.
How to Play:
You and your opponent take turns making moves. A move consists of either a jump or a grow. A jump means that you remove your piece from it's existing destination and place it in the new location. A grow means that your piece will replicate into an adjacent location.
When it is your turn, select one of your pieces on the board. The locations you may jump or grow into are highlighted. Navigate to a valid jump or grow location and select it. To select a different piece, first unselect the piece you have selected. After you piece has moved, any of your opponent's pieces that touch the location you just moved into will change into your colour and you now own those pieces.
Some levels have blocked-off hexes which can’t be moved on by either player.
When all locations on the board have been claimed, the level ends. If you have obtained the required numbers of pieces (the number you must obtain is shown in the top-right of the screen during the game) you will progress to the next level. To win the game, you must defeat your opponent in all levels.
There are three levels of difficulty. Challenge yourself on harder levels once you complete the Easy levels.
Good luck and have fun!
