About this game
Blocks approach from all six directions. Rotate the hexagon to bring a matching stack in line with the next block. Matches can form along a side or across adjoining sides. Clearing matches close together builds a combo.
This edition preserves the original Hextris controls and colour-blind palette. The archive player can pause the board, and a run can resume from a local save in the same browser.

Quick tips
Watch the tallest stack as you rotate. The side facing the next block is only one of six.
Use the colour-blind palette from the in-game help controls if the default colours are hard to distinguish.
