match (itch)

To win the game, you have to remove every hex by matching them. Matching rules are explained in the "how to play" menu.

Difficulties:

• easy: more than 11 initial active hex positions
• hard: less than 10 initial active hex positions
• plus: added two quintessence hexes

ver 1.3

• slightly changed hex colors based on user feedback

ver 1.2

• another bugfix for the solver, now I'm 99% sure all the maps are solvable
• in easy modes, now there are equal amounts of 2, 3 and 6 sided maps
• in hard modes, turns out there are only around 35 possible 6 sided patterns, so only 0,05% of the maps has 6 sides to avoid too much pattern repetition
• I'm working on other ways to verify maps solvability with outside help, I will update this page with the results

ver 1.1

• added quintessence
• added scaling
• added difficulty
• maps were generated with a new map pattern generator
• maps were generated with an improved solver, so there shouldn't be any unsolvable maps anymore.
• 40,000 maps were generated, 10,000 for each difficulty

ver 1.0

• initial release

The game mechanics were invented by Zachtronics LLC, it's from a minigame called Sigmar's Garden which is part of their awesome game Opus Magnum. You should go check it out!
