The Hex PC Game 2018 review:
It is a clever, murder mystery game which explores the relationship between games and their creators, players and community.
(v1.15 Update added)
In a creaky old tavern, in a forgotten corner of the video game universe, a storm is raging. The barkeep gets a patchy phone call. It’s hard to tell what the caller is saying, but this much is clear: someone in The Six Pint Inn is planning a murder.
There are six patrons; all of them are video game protagonists trying to escape their past… But The Six Pint Inn has a way of bringing back old memories. Each flashback plays out in an entirely different genre, sometimes blending multiple. By exploring these memories you may discover the identity of the murderer… or you may learn much darker secrets.
The less you know about the The Hex going in, the more you will get out of it. Conversely, the more you’ve played games, thought about games, studied games, or made games, the more you will get out of it. The Hex defies, redefines and deconstructs the notion of genre, and will make you question the interrelation of creators, creations, and consumers, the nature of reality, and your own sanity. It is a game about games, playing games, and making games.
Pros of The Hex:
- Control the six patrons and explore The Six Pint Inn
- Delve into the memories of these cast-aside game protagonists to learn the truth of their past
- Learn the identity of the would-be murderer… as well as the victim
- The Hex takes roughly 6 hours to complete on the first playthrough.
