    The game is simple and not frustrating to play. the game is a 9/10. I feel wired from playing as I focus on what is going on. It becomes intuitive. I am transfixed. I can't be anything other than flow. Any difficulty above medium is gated by reaction time and is unreasonable to play.

    Super Hexagon is very difficult, although you could play through all of it in just 6 minutes, it will very likely take you multiple hours to complete it. I personally managed to complete it in 22 hours with my XBox One controller attached to my PC, which I very much recommend.

    The game itself incentivises you to dodge incoming obstacles in form of a hexagon, often leaving only one side open. Combine that with high-bpm chiptune music and always more difficult levels, you have a very addicting game, which I found myself playing for hours in a row.
    It costs less than a Sandwich, and definetely almost as good.    … Expand

    The prototypical example of a perfect game. Super fast paced and skill based gameplay loop with one of the best soundtracks of the decade. Absolute perfection

    This is so much fun. No really, in my two hours (I have beat hexagon and hexangoner), I have not once felt dissatisfied with the game after leaving it for another day.

    While the controls at first felt really slippery, you soon get used to them and realise the necessity for the slippery controls. I feel is what makes super hexagon unique from all the other infinite runner/fast-paced games, are the slippery controls. this is a great boredom buster and well worth the price.

    Also, is no-one going to talk about the progression levels? like the point all the way to the hexagon. This was a perfect design choice to keep me coming for more. It's kind of like saying, 'You suck, but you suck a bit less.' This, and many other small details is what kept me coming for more.    … Expand

    Awesome music, I like the fact that it's also available on mobile devices, since it has the most simple controls ever. You just zone out to the visuals and music, in a way it's both frustrating and relaxing.

    Hours could be spent playing this straight-forward arcade style game. Its combines the simplification of controls and high responsiveness all great games within in the Twitch gameplay field contain whilst maintaining a challenging element that engages any gamer.

Its combines the simplification of controls and high responsiveness all great games within in the Twitch gameplay field contain whilst maintaining a challenging element that engages any gamer.
    As I moved through the levels there was a clear differentiation as each of the 3 levels (Hexagon, Hexagoner and Hexagonest) and there hyper and normal modes. I can appreciate how the game automatically switches to these higher tiers whilst using the same basic controls but demonstrating the difference through the colour, speed and gauntlet patterns the gamer has to navigate their way through. These changes provide the player with a feeling of progression attracting their attention.
    These 3 levels play different songs from a soundtrack made by Chipzel: each song starts at a random place when the new level begins to add to that automatic-new-level feel gaining a sense of momentum within the gamer. When the triangle gets caught in the hexagon the game can easily be reset by pressing the space bar which fires up a new pattern: personally I love this and the automatic-new-level feature as it means less time it spent fiddling about with settings and more game time. An automated voice is present at certain times indicating a new level and time that has been reached meaning the player doesn’t get distracted looking at the timer. In my opinion this adds to the suspense and engages the player more.
    However, the geometry patterns may seem boring in comparison to other simulations with in the Twitch/ Action genre as the majority are the same shape, a Hexagon, which provides the game with its USP although people may agree this is dull and the lazy design isn’t detailed enough. Nonetheless the graphics of these basic designs are reasonably good.
    Super Hexagon lacks any real signs of advancement from its 2012 prototype, Hexagon, as the game’s visuals haven’t really been developed. The only real change is in the clarity of levels and difficultly. There have been times when playing Super Hexagon on a PC that I have felt it may be too responsive and that glitches in the graphics have led to an early death. This is clearly an error that needs to be corrected. There have been issues in the past with updates wiping saved games and high scores anyhow the 2.0 version on IOS has major performance improvements and true retina display support.
    From a social point of view this isn’t a game that can be played multi-player at the same time which is a weakness. Although any player’s best scores or friend’s high scores can be broadcasted on sites such as Stream and Game Centre depending on the device being operated. Super Hexagon is available on IOS, Android and PC; these consoles offer limited controls as only the Keyboards can be used when playing on a PC (this has faced heavy criticism as this version doesn’t support mouse control for PCs) and other gadgets use their volume control buttons to control the movement of the triangle which isn’t ideal. The game is cost-effective costing on average £2.50 or can be played for free online with no in-game transactions which is always a positive.
    Overall I think this game is entertaining for a low cost single-player game however the minimalistic design may appear basic but the game has the potential to be challenging if the gamer perseveres.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I liked this game. Pretty short after enough practice but you'll probably keep playing it even after having completed it, because you can always go to beat your personal bests in the levels. The random patterns in Hexagoner are definitely the best. Hexagon is a bit tedious and Hexagonest is very repetitive with the exception of rare appearances of the "Right Right Left Left Left" pattern and the "hold left or right" pattern. Still, this game can be a nice challenge for players that are new to fast pressing.… Expand

    What can I say about Super Hexagon? It is a fun little indie game that makes you rage but also makes you feel satisfied! The objective of the game is just to dodge these large hexagons and every 10 seconds (or so...) it changes a bit and makes it more challenging and faster, on the whole I highly recommend this game if you don't mind swearing once or twice!

With its extreme challenge and fun gameplay mechanics this game will have you play until the sun comes up. Also, it has 6 different difficulties which each should take about 2 hours to master and truly beat though this may vary depending on skill and reaction time as well as the last few being extremely hard to beat, but about 14 hours of gameplay is great for a game that costs 3 dollars.

    On the other hand this game isn't for everyone. If you don't like massive strobes colorful lights and loud music I wouldn't suggest this game. Also some may be burnt out in the first level if they give up easily as it is very challenging, and anyone who hates games that stick to 1 mechanic by heart won't like this game. 8/10 generally you will enjoy this game for all the content it has but some may give up throwing keyboards, or get burnt out by gameplay but generally this game is extremely fun.    … Expand

    The difficulty is perfectly balanced in-between the six game modes and the varying patterns keep you on edge. The controls are very fluent and easy to manage. If you fail, it's always your fault. The changing colors are distracting, but they add to the already tough difficulty. It has an excellent soundtrack to boot,

    This is a quite challenging game, requiring you to have sharp hand-eye coordination, a great level of concentration, and ability to focus at all costs. If you have all those, you should be able to nail the first two, or possibly three, levels of this game. It isn't easy though. Aside from its difficulty, this is a good little game with a small price tag.

I first saw it on sale for like, 29 cents, expecting it to be an simple game i would play for several hours and be done with it, but then i ended up playing 59 hours in total. The idea behind this game is very simple, you are a small triangle circling around a hexagon with vibrant flashing colors and a great soundtrack that fits the game perfectly.Let me say this first, i LOVE this game!

The idea behind this game is very simple, you are a small triangle circling around a hexagon with vibrant flashing colors and a great soundtrack that fits the game perfectly. You just have to last 60 seconds on each level to beat it. Sounds simple, Right? But It will take you hours just to beat the first level.
    It is a extremely addictive game, and one you will play a lot. You will get better each time you play it. It does not give you time to feel down about dying, as you can get right back into the acting less then a second after you have died. You can spend hours just trying to beat your old high score by a single second. And that feeling when you finally beat a level, man it is the greatest feeling of satisfaction ever. Once you beat the last level, you will fell the most amazing feeling of accomplishment ever. when you play, you will not blink, you have to focus on everything at once so that you can move you character to the right place to survive. Each second feels like a minute, and a minute feels like an eternity when playing this game.You will never feel angry at the game, or dissapointed at yourself, because you will noticeably improve yourself each time you play. i have seen some complaints that it is really hard, but i do not view that a a complaint, if it was easy, or even just at a normal difficulty, you could power through it quickly.
    I love this game, and i will still play it though i have beat it. You know that you are in a challenge when the first(And easiest) level is labeled hard. It is addictive, challenging, and so freaking fun for 3 bucks that i would recommend this game to anybody.    … Expand

Has broken everything ever created from the amount of BS being pumped through the veins of Super Hexagon. I never seen a game so GOOD. Its pure LSD. When you finally beat the game. Its like Jesus came down from heaven and put a pound of cocaine on your anus hole. Then it turns into syrup and a lumberjack from outer space comes down in a UFO to stack pancakes on your anus and enjoy that cocaine syrup inside your butthole. In this process your anus widens at least 30 inches and it then gives you the power to beat the good game. I hope my review helps you to buy the game and some day become a legend like I have.

    Super Hexagon is a hands down one of the best games to just sit and kill 5 or 10 minutes with. With it's catchy music, it really holds your attention and will keep you coming back.

    The only downside I can place on this game, (other than the fact that I can't win) is that the name probable should have been changed to "Epilepsy Trigger: 2013" Because with the music, flashing lights,    Super Hexagon is a hands down one of the best games to just sit and kill 5 or 10 minutes with.

    As many have said, this game is ridiculously difficult. The first level is labelled hard, and there is a reason for that! While the game gets somewhat repetitive after a while it somehow manages to avoid losing replayability and I have come back time and again. The music is brilliant, the simple visuals are an acid trip, and you WILL lose yourself in the hypnotic yet psychedelic gameplay.As many have said, this game is ridiculously difficult.

Add to that it's ridiculously cheap (I got it for 30c in a steam sale) and you WILL not be disappointed. I have it on pc, and the controls are not sloppy. Gamepad might be harder though ^^… Expand

    Deceptively simple, ingeniously infuriating, incredibly fun. I will never stop loving this game.
    That isn't to say this game is for everyone. It will knock you into the dirt until you beg for mercy, and even then it will just kick you some more. But for someone like myself, the satisfaction you get when you hear "Excellent" is well worth the pain.

    Super Hexagon is not a game you'll play for months on end. It's not a significant step in the evolution of games as an art form. But damn if it isn't astounding that a game this simple can be such a joy to play! As a small-scale time waster it's pretty much perfect. [May 2013]

    Fast, minimal and fun: Super Hexagon is the new Terry Cavanagh triumph.

    A frenzied, elegant action game that pulses with great music and demanding thrills, for only £2/$3.
