User Reviews for Super Hexagon
SUPERRR HEXAGON!
First, you should know this app doesn't pressure anyone to write a review, so to see so many people willingly come write good reviews should say enough about this game.This game is super addicting and really simple. At first you will wonder how anyone can last more than 2 seconds. With practice you do get a feel for it, but not in a way where the game becomes predictable. You may even find it helpful to utilize peripheral vision at times. The music is nice and kind of helps you get a rhythm going, but the slightest hesitation can make or break your streak. This is what makes the game so great in my opinion. You really must get the rhythm down and be precise, confident, and quick in your movements. This app will definitely be an essential game on my phone. I got it for free app of the week, but I could see myself paying for it had I missed the opportunity to get it free.
To all the one star ratings
Most of the low star ratings say that the games controls are bad, the game over voice is annoying, or it’s too hard. I really like the controls, but it gets a while to get used to. A part of the challenge is always knowing where the pointer is, and inverting your brain to adapt when the pointer switches sides. The ladies voice also isn’t annoying, and shouldn’t hold you back from getting the game. I feel like I don’t even hear the voice of the game over scene, because I restart the game so quickly and get absorbed once again. And for those who think the game is too hard, that’s kind of the point. The game seems really fast, confusing, and unintuitive, but the point is to adapt to it. There really are no other games like this one. If you don’t like repetition and practice, the you probably won’t enjoy the game. Even then, I thought I didn’t like that either but I beat every difficulty on this. Don’t want to be the guy who says “get good,” but that’s the only fun you’ll have with this game.
Not For Me
The controls are very sensitive and very unforgiving. Holding your finger down for a fraction of a fraction of a second too long results in losing 100% of the time. I just couldn't get used to them.And there's the losing... I don't mind losing in games as long as it ultimately yields something worth my time. This game gives you the satisfaction of beating your own time and aside from that it gives you lots of frustrating disappointment. And the failure this game gives you is extremely constant. Starting off, you will fail miserably multiple times per minute, and once you play long enough to get a really great run, you may never feel anything but failure from this game again.I'm glad so many people are finding enjoyment in this game, but it is definitely not my cup of tea. If you're one of the many people who want to repeatedly be killed by Atari graphics, look no further than this game.
Sublime
I cannot overstate how much I love this game. The controls are snappy, the visuals crisp, the music energizing. It perfectly hits the "hard but fair" sweet spot. At first you can't survive for more than a few seconds on the first level but you keep playing, getting better and finally you are so very close to the 60 second mark on the final level and then you complete it and the high when you do is unmatched.Give the game a try. If you like it, you'll love it and if you don't, you've probably wasted more money on a terrible movie or buying food that you didn't end up eating and had to throw away because it got all moldy and gross.
Addicting
This game first struck me as being extremely hard, which it is. I got better and eventually beat the first two levels. Then, it gets really hard, but for a different reason. My brain can keep track of where I am and where I want to go. But, when it gets really fast, the taps become really sensitive so that you can move fast enough to keep up. So, you tap the screen to move the triangle into the opening, but the game is so sensitive that you fly right over it. It turns from a game where you try to keep track of the triangle and move it to safety constantly, to a game where you must tap the screen for the perfect amount of time, or else you lose. That transition is really annoying, and makes the game too frustrating to play.
Fantastic.
Super Hexagon is simply a must have; but you need to know what you're getting into. The mechanics are pretty simple; you are a small triangle, and walls are coming straight into the shape in the middle. You must rotate around the polygon to avoid a one hit death from a wall. As simple as it seems, it isn't that easy. The stage spins, changes colors, and gets fast. The levels are hard, harder, and hardest. By beating a stage you get another; hardester, hardestest, and hardestester. You die a lot; but you can retry instantly. To beat a level, you must survive a difficulty for 60 seconds. Then you unlock a new level, as stated before, and it is a much harder version. I've played this game for probably two years, stopped and started again, and have started recognizing patterns. This is a skill based, memorization based game. I would not recommend this to the weak of stomach, weak of mind, lack of skill, or lack of temper. If you're not sure, play it, or its online demo. It's only 3 bucks and its lasted me a while. I still haven't beaten it. Oh yeah, it takes patience!
This game...
This game makes you say "Holy what the... what?" as you learn how to play it. It is an amazing game, I can't stop playing it!You think that this game is kind of a pick up and play game, but noooooo... Strap up for hours of fun and frustration, because this game brings a whole new definition to "addicting". Every time you always say "Just one more round..." then you die, of course respawning saying "Oh that death didn't count, because [Insert lame excuse here] happened I will play just once more..." Well, you get the picture.Oh and need I mention the fact that you will probably be playing this game for years? Not because that it is addicting, but because it is frustrating. Either you beat the level and feel super satisfied, always coming back for more, or you throw your phone against the wall and have to wait to buy a new one... Adding up to the years previously mentioned.Alright, alright, jokes aside, this game really is worth five stars, you get so much fun for that amount of money. Totes worth it!!!
The Only Game Worth Buying on the App Store
I stand by the subject. I sincerely believe this game is one of the only games worth getting. This game plays with your addiction. The most minuscule detail turns out to be the most redeeming factor: when you lose, you could just tap (quite vigorously, seeing as you just lost) and boom, you're right back to playing. No ads, no fuss, trying to press multiple buttons with long loading times in between. Just tap the screen and you're back to playing. And it's still addictive, your mind thinks "Argh! I just lost!" Then 1 second later, you're back to playing, trying to beat your score by at least half a second. This is one of those games where you need to practice. You start out losing only a couple seconds in, but it doesn't get frustrating since there's little to no delay between games. The game trains your mind, every stage in every level is designed to build up your brain to both fasten your reflexes, or recognize patterns. When your brain's all trained up, you'll find yourself lasting minutes on end, and all your friends will look at you, amazed. You need patience with your skills. Of course you're not going to do well at first, but you need patience and keep practicing. If you don't have that type of patience, then this game isn't for you. See Candy Crush, or Angry Birds? You don't need pesky microtransactions to feed off your consumers' addictions!
Nearly perfect!
Ninety-nine percent of iOS games are abysmal, but there're a few that shine through. I've traditionally held exactly three in that regard: Threes!, VVVVVV, and Super Hexagon, and also secondarily osu!stream. What makes this so great? Well, as long as you can put up with the difficulty for the first week or so, it's a wonderful game to pass the time and to forever want to improve at: no ads, no IAPs, no nothing, just the six levels and your high scores on them. Why's it so hard? Because the game's creator designs things to feel good to him, and he has claimed that he "has the attention span of a four-year-old" who doesn't like waiting for things to happen. (VVVVVV has no cutscenes longer than c. 30 seconds if you mash through the text.) Why did I dock a star then? So as to not look *too* flattering on this as to get ignored; it's totally not because of a glitch related to high scores with which I have an easy time putting up when I only beat one high score every few days now. TL;DR I, meta04 (a purple メタ icon in the top 15 of all six leaderboards, 4th place on Hexagon), think this couldn't be much better than it is.
Awesome game! 👍
I loved this game ever since I first tried it. I am a fan of pixel-art, and techno music, so the music was cool. It kept me engaged for hours. I got 42 seconds on the first level, and I felt like that was pretty good for less than 250 tries. It is sort of like Geometry Dash, how it keeps making you want to come back, even after you get upset about it. I just have 2 reccomendations. 1) I think that there should be different skins than just a triangle. You could make something like a hexagon, pentagon, or other shapes too. 2) I think that there should be a level easier than "Hexagon" so people that just start playing get the hang of it faster. Other than that, great game! Totally deserves 5 stars.
