Fast Reaction Time Game - Play Hextris
Hextris is an interesting and very difficult problem solving challenge and reaction time skill-based game for older kids, teens & grownups where you must match 3 or more same-colored blocks by catching them as they fall onto a rotatable hexagon. Differently colored blocks both descend and approach from the outer rim of your hexagonal (5-sided) grid. Your job is to quickly and carefully rotate your hexagon so that the falling blocks land in advantageous positions – creating matches of three or more adjacent same-colored blocks in a group (In a group of 3, one of the blocks must touch the other two).
This really clever and fast-paced, Tetris-inspired, matching puzzle requires very good color and hand-eye coordination, decision making and reaction speed skills as you rapidly rotate your hexagon to your advantage. A cool head under intense pressure is also very important here as you swiftly try organize same-colored blocks into ideal placements on the grid. This is arcade-style, block-falling game play as you've possibly never experienced it before! Enjoy the challenge!
How to Play: This is a ‘1-level’ HTML5-based game where you must survive for as long as possible and score as many points as you can by making matches. Differently-colored shapes enter the game screen from 5 different sides around your hexagonal shape. Use the Arrow Keys on your keyboard or your computer mouse (quick-fire point-and-click either side of the hexagon) to rotate your shape.
If you play this game on mobile, have your phone in horizontal view; rotating the hexagon like a dial will turn it or tapping left or right of the horizontal screen will rotate the hexagon.
You are attempting to create matches of three or more same-colored blocks positioned adjacent to each other - horizontally, vertically or a mix of both as long as one of the blocks (in a group of 3) touches the other two blocks.
Each time a match is created, those blocks are eliminated from the hexagon, and you score points toward your grand total. As the game continues, the shapes enter the game grid at a higher speed, and with 2 or three entering at a time on some occasions when the going gets really tough. It's game over when your hexagon is filled all the way out to the edge of the game screen.
