On Reflection
If you really MUST have a Hexic game (we can’t imagine why on Earth that would be), get Hexic
HD… it’s free and this one’s not. However, if you have to spend money and want a decent puzzler,
try Puzzle Quest or Puzzle Fighter 2 instead.
The Score
We’re not sure what the point of this release is. Obviously, anyone reading this piece will have the
original title safely stored away under (or perhaps above) their televisions, having cost them the
princely sum of nothing at all and, by and large, it’s hard to tell the two games apart. Yes there are
new jewels to deal with, plus a two-player Battle mode, which works by increasing and decreasing
how much of the board each player can move, but it’s certainly not seven quid more entertaining
than what came before. Only a point’s worth, in fact. Back to the drawing board then…
