About the Game

HexaTerra is a layered puzzle game, place hexagonal pieces to fill up the board, but there's another layer to think about each hexagon of every piece represents a different biome. As you strategically place pieces, some biomes will change based on their neighbors, while others remain fixed, influencing the tiles around them. This adds an exciting layer of complexity, requiring you to think several steps ahead or fiddle with the board after you filled it up trying to get that last piece just right.

Gameplay Mechanics

  • Dynamic Biome Interaction: Some biomes are fixed and exert influence over adjacent tiles, creating unique challenges and requiring careful planning.

  • Biome Goals: To fully complete each level, you must not only fill the board but also ensure specific biomes appear with a minimum count. This adds a fun layer of strategy as you decide where to place each piece.

  • Campaign Mode: Take on the campaign to progress the story and tackle hand-crafted challenges designed to test your puzzle-solving skills and strategic thinking.

  • Endless Possibilities: Procedurally generated levels ensure that even after you've completed the campaign you can play new levels with the click of a button.

  • Seed Based Generation Using seed based generation allows levels to be shared and replayed.

  • Multiple Requirement Types Beyond the basic level there is also the cold north and the volcanic lands, each with its own requirements and adjacency rules.

    Coming Soon:

  • Level editor A custom level editor with steam workshop integration.
