Hex

How to play

The classic connection game on a 9×9 hexagonal board. You connect top to bottom, the AI connects left to right — whoever links their two sides first wins, and a draw is mathematically impossible.

Rules

  • Click any empty hex to place your red stone.
  • Your stones connect to any adjacent hex in the six surrounding directions.
  • The AI places a blue stone after every move you make.
  • Connect an unbroken chain of your stones from your starting edge to your opposite edge to win.

Tips

Play toward the centre early — central stones keep the most possible connecting paths open, while edge stones commit you to a narrower plan sooner than you'd like.
