Hextide
A hexagonal lights-out puzzle
Free · In‑App Purchases
120 hand-checked boards, four kinds of cell, and no timers or ads.
Every level has a solution — finding the short one is the game.
Tap a cell and it changes color — along with every neighbor it touches, in all six directions. Keep tapping until the whole board is green.
That is the whole rule, and it is enough for 120 boards.
Every level is solvable, and every solution was checked before it shipped. There is no luck in Hextide and nothing is generated while you play: the board in front of you is a fixed problem with a known answer, and the only question is whether you can find it — and how few taps it takes.
THE BOARDS
The early levels hold you to a move count. Run out and the board is dealt again. Later ones are more forgiving: the count becomes a target rather than a rule, and finishing inside it earns the level its gold mark. Going back for the gold you missed is most of the second playthrough.
Not every cell answers the same way. Reef, tide and ripple cells each bend the rule above, and they arrive one at a time with a line of explanation — no tutorial to sit through, and nothing hidden behind a wall of text.
WHAT IS NOT IN IT
No advertisements. No timers. No lives, no energy, no daily streak, no account to make. Nothing is watching you play and nothing needs a network connection: the game works on a plane, and your progress stays on your device.

The first 35 levels are free. One purchase of $0.99 unlocks the remaining 85, once, forever — no subscription and nothing else to buy.
