Hex Hex 1.5 (Revised & Expanded)

HEX is a fast-playing, stand-alone card game for 3-6 people. Players hurl Hex after Hex around the table, constantly redirecting, deflecting and altering the Hex's power until finally someone runs out of options and becomes HEXED.

In the end, the winner alone will command enough Voice to control the group and lay down the law... creating a new rule for the next game.

The new base game, Hex

Hex 1.5, has been upgraded with a more durable box (which now allows for proper storage of all the game components), glass bead scoring tokens, even more Hex tokens, a marker to track who went first --AND two ALL NEW cards that better balance gameplay, LEVEL and THE FORGOTTEN.

Okay, that's what it says on the box... what's it really like?

Fast and fun. This game is all about non-stop player interaction. Every card you play is an attack or a back-stabbing tactic. A good amount of the rules are right on the cards so there's a small learning curve (one game ought to do it). After that, it is pretty simple to play. Heck, even your non-gamer friends will enjoy it. A single hand lasts from 3-5 minutes. A game from 20-30 minutes. But more often than not, groups play sessions running 3-5 games long as players create new and different ways to be mean' to each other. It's no strategy game. But if you're looking for a great 'beer & pretzels' style game with a fun mean-streak. This is it.
