    Hexic 2’s addition of other pieces will make it a bit more playable, though Black Pearls are still going to be a challenge if you don’t already know how to get them. As well, the inclusion of Battle Mode adds a great platform for competitive gamers.

    Hexic 2 deftly expands every concept that made its freebie predecessor the star of Live Arcade's launch. [Sept 2007, p.74]

    After playing Hexic 2, it’s really hard to go back and play Hexic HD. Hexic 2 is worth checking out especially if you have friends that are also competitive puzzle fanatics.

    Hexic 2 is an excellent puzzle game on its own merits, but the original was perfection. For fans of the first game, multiplayer, new pieces, and new leaderboards to conquer should be well worth the 800 Marketplace points (around $10), but those who haven't given the series the time of day should explore the original first.

    Hexic 2's new multiplayer mode adds frenetic new fun to an already-sharp puzzle game.

    The changes are plentiful, but there's nothing ludicrously revolutionary here.

Contrairement à Tetris cependant, c'est très confus et encore plus soporifique, à tel point qu'en faisant tourner les hexagones totalement au hasard, on s'en sort très bien.

    Je ne sais pas en tout cas ce que cette espèce de jeu Gameboy / smartdaubeàphone est venu faire sur console, car c'est tout de même d'une rare indigence, super répétitif, très limité et extrêmement abrutissant. Et en plus, ils le vendaient ce "truc"... et même qu'ils le vendent encore ! ils manquent pas d'air ces branques !    … Full Review »

    THere's a lot more new here than first meets the eye. The new pieces definitely make it easier to get into and lear, but also add depth THere's a lot more new here than first meets the eye. The new pieces definitely make it easier to get into and lear, but also add depth to the SP experience. The battle mode is a lot of fun once you learn how to play. The new color scheme is definitely a big change from Hexic HD, but Hexic HD didn't look like it belonged on the 360 anyway.… Full Review »
