What players say

Players say Hexcells Plus is harder than the first game, with some levels requiring guesswork and a frustrating final level that breaks the game's own rules. Many complain about fatigue from mental strain and accidental misclicks, while others appreciate the added challenge and relaxing zone-out quality.
