Simple Hex: A Two-Player Connection Game

Simple Hex is a captivating two-player connection game with straightforward rules, making it easy to learn but challenging to master. Players choose red or blue and take turns coloring empty cells on the game board. The objective is to create a connected path of your colored cells linking opposite sides of the board. The first player to complete this connection wins.

Game Modes:

The game offers three modes:

  • Play with AI: Compete against an AI opponent with three difficulty levels (easy, medium, hard). The AI can play first or second.
  • Play with Friends: Play against a friend using separate devices.
  • Pass & Play: Enjoy local multiplayer gameplay on a single device.

Game Features:

  • Undo Button: Allows you to undo your last move(s) (currently unavailable in AI mode).
  • Steal Move: To balance the inherent first-player advantage, the second player can choose to switch positions with the first player after the first move. This forces strategic first moves from the opening player (currently unavailable in AI mode).
  • Multiple Board Sizes: Choose from 7x7, 9x9, and 11x11 boards, offering increasing complexity and game length.

AI Enhancements:

The AI in this version utilizes a "stable" unbounded best-first minimax game algorithm. Thanks to Saatvik Inampudi and Shoheb Shaik for their work on performance improvements to the AI algorithm.

Version 0.45 (Updated Dec 18, 2024):

This update makes the easy level genuinely easy and slightly reduces the difficulty of the medium level.
