Cross-Platform Game of the Week – Hexadrome
Tuesday, May 24, 2016
When great retro games, creative idea and talent meet, the
results can’t be bad. Within the last week, the game that left us the best
impression, and that is still largely played in our office, was Hexadrome. This
retro, arcade, endless game has one simple challenge. That is to protect The
Grid by collecting red projectiles into your Ring Reflector and charging it
with the blue ones. What makes this game cool is the interesting gameplay. You
are moving all the time in awkward directions and you need to remain calm and
keep fighting.
The fact that the game requires great concentration and
skills, and features innovative gameplay, makes it excitingly interesting and
addictive. You’ll always want to score better and pass trough the levels. But,
the game is demanding, don’t you think that you’ll save the Grid easily.
However, with the great controls, upbeat and tastefully
selected music and the demanding and challenging gameplay, this game will keep
you interested for a long time. One thing we also adored was the stylish and
simply beautiful typography. The physics of the movements and the responsiveness
of the Ring are also impressive. Overall, this is a really good new game. It’s
free and available on both App Store and Google Play.
