Overview
Hexograph is a logic puzzle game from developer and publisher Icospheric that takes the paint-by-numbers formula familiar from Nonograms and Picross and rebuilds it on hexagonal grids. Instead of rows and columns, clues run across three directions, so every cell sits at the intersection of more than two hints. The result is a deduction game that feels related to classic picross but asks you to think in a different geometry.
Highlights
- 200 hand-crafted hexagonal puzzles spread across four chapters, each one introducing a new mechanic as you progress.
- Multi-color logic with up to four colors, plus original hint rules that go beyond simple numbers while keeping every puzzle solvable by pure reasoning.
- Each completed puzzle reveals a colorful image, supported by a range of interface, difficulty and accessibility settings and full controller support.
The core promise here is no guessing. Clues in three directions and layered hint rules are designed so that careful elimination is always enough, which should appeal to solvers who dislike brute-forcing the last few cells.
Because puzzles are hand-crafted rather than generated, the difficulty curve is tied to the chapter structure, and new mechanics arrive at a steady pace instead of all at once.
Who It's For
This one is aimed at players who already enjoy Nonograms and Picross and want a fresh twist on the genre, as well as anyone who likes calm, methodical logic work. The relaxing tone and accessibility options make it approachable for newcomers, while the three-direction clue system gives veterans something new to chew on. It is a single-player experience with Steam Achievements, and the interface is available in English.
