Some advanced moves are possible, which give the game its depth. The system sounds a little weird, but it doesn't take long for the gameplay to become second nature.
If you get three like-colored pieces to hook up, they disappear and the rest come tumbling down, possibly setting off a big, high-scoring chain reaction. Hexic HD is similar, except you're rotating groups of three hexagons instead of swapping pairs of squares. In Bejeweled, you match square-shaped jewels in rows or columns of three these jewels then disappear as more spill down from offscreen. You need not look far for a good puzzle game for the Xbox 360.
Its crisp, simple graphics also look surprisingly good on an HDTV. Hexic HD is more similar to the more-recent puzzle classic Bejeweled than to Pajitnov's masterpiece, and it makes for a fun and engaging way to pass the time. This attractive, easy-to-play, and addictive puzzle game was apparently designed by none other than Alexey Pajitnov, the creator of the greatest puzzle game of them all, Tetris. While you won't be getting a free copy of Perfect Dark Zero or Project Gotham Racing 3 with your purchase of a new Xbox 360 premium system, what you will get is Hexic HD, an Xbox Live Arcade puzzle game that comes preloaded onto the hard drive.
