About Hex Puzzle
Hex Puzzle is the 1010!-style block-placement brainteaser: place the offered pieces on an 8×8 board, clear full rows and columns, and survive as the board tightens. No timer — just inevitability.
How to Play Hex Puzzle
- 1Tap one of the three offered pieces to select it.
- 2Tap a board cell to place it; the piece must fit entirely in empty space.
- 3Complete rows or columns vanish and score; the tray refills when all three pieces are used.
- 4The game ends when no offered piece fits anywhere.
Tips & Strategy
- ◆Keep a 3×3 pocket open at all times for the big square piece — it ends more games than anything else.
- ◆Clear lines through the centre; edge clutter is what strangles late boards.
- ◆Place large pieces first each tray, then patch with small ones.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I rotate pieces?
No — like 1010!, pieces place as shown, which makes tray-order planning the real skill.
How does scoring work?
Points per cell placed plus escalating bonuses for multi-line clears in one placement.
Why did my game end with space left?
Free space in the wrong shape is dead space — if none of the three current pieces fits it, the run is over.
