Hexachain

One swipe makes a bomb. One detonator. One chain.

Hexachain is a hex puzzle game about chain reactions. Every board has a chain of bombs that doesn't work: too short, broken, too far from the detonator. You get a few swipes to fix it. Then you tap the detonator, just once, and watch whether the reaction makes it all the way.

How to play

• Drag across neighboring tiles of the same color and release: they vanish, and a bomb appears where the swipe ends
• Bombs don't go off on their own. When you're ready, tap the detonator: it destroys the 6 cells around it, and every  bomb it hits explodes too.
• You only get one detonation

Controls

Mouse or touch. Works on phones too, in portrait.
