About the Game

You are hunted by a rogue computer program. Avoid the bot either by yourself or cooperate with others while attempting to collect electrical components around the world to activate beacons to open the escape hatch.

Hex Bots is a horror chaser game inspired by Nextbots where you can play alone or with up to 3 other players. Your goal is to pick up electrical components in order to connect circuits on the computers scattered around the map, all while avoiding the demonic rogue artificial intelligence called Ounce.

Hex Bots is best enjoyed as an online party game. There are various objectives, some that advances direct progression, and others that give you permanent boosts, and the players decide who will work on what.
