Hey!

Do you like logic-puzzles? Do you like Computer Games??

Check out Hexcells it’s Fun and Good u_u

Seriously I played through it in, like, two days and my immediate reaction to finishing it was “NEED MORE PUZZLE!!” and I have, in a Mature and Forthright fashion, been struggling against my desire to impulse-buy its expansions ever since u_u u_u u_u

While trying to nerve myself up to ruining another OC’s life replaying The City’s Thirst, I’ve been playing Hexcells, which is a delightful puzzle game that starts out like a hex-based, solvable-by-logic Minesweeper, then gradually adds in Picross-like elements. (The puzzle above is the next-to-last one; they take a while to get that complicated.) Challenging towards the end, but not frustrating - just a really pleasant and hexcellent (sorry) experience. Probably about 2-3 hours to finish; the sequels (which I just bought and haven’t played yet) are reputed to have harder puzzles and take more like 9-10 hours.

Highly recommended if you like logic puzzles and have a PC/Mac/Linux system to play it on. The game (and its follow-ups) are under $1 during the Steam sale (through Jan. 4).

The solutions in Hexcells are always aesthetically pleasing, so sometimes you end up looking at part of the board thinking I can't prove it yet but this cell has to be blue because every other possible solution would be ugly

I am missing something here and I have no idea what it is.

ETA: apparently I just needed to look at a screenshot instead of the game. I had a move I could make in the right corner.
