Super Hexagon Review

This is a user submitted review by colonelwhoopass on March 2, 2014, 6:07 p.m.

An addicting little arcade-y type game that some days you can sit and play for a solid 5 min and other days you can play for 30 sec and just stop, but you will always keep coming back for more. Its not the type of game that has a story. You play as a lonely triangle shaped character in a hexagon shaped world. The hexagons are always encircling you and often try to eat you by imploding on the character but they always leave a slight opening in which the character can escape. Escape in the given time and youll have to dodge the next, and the next.

Graphics

    • 8.02D

        It is indeed a 2-D game. Nothing spectacular graphically, but it does what it promises.

      9.5Gameplay

        fun, addicting, makes you frustrated but I can't help but to love it

        • 9.5Difficulty

            Its hard. Period. If you even manage to beat the easiest mode, then you have 2 more higher difficulties waiting for you, each with faster and smarter hexagons

          • 7.5Puzzles

              Not much of a puzzle, but its hard to characterize this game. It takes smart and fast reflexes

            10.0Replay Value

              I keep coming back for more

              • Harder Difficulties

                  the easiest takes a while to get through, the hardest is nearly impossible but that doesn't stop you from playing it. Its just fun

                9.5Bang For Your Buck

                  Got it very cheap in a steam sale(54c i think?)and i have played it over 2 hours total

                  Perspective

                    • Top Down Perspective

                      Soundtrack

                        Great catchy electronic music, keeps you entertained while your moving around that triangle

                        • Catchy

                            Very catchy

                          Conclusion

                          if its on sale again you have no reason not to purchase. Just a fun little game

                          9.0 Overall Score
