THEN A MESSAGE ARRIVED

The missing bees were still alive.

As Hexanor rebuilds, a message arrives from an expedition lost years ago. With it come unfamiliar pollen and a stone glowing green through its cracks.

A MESSAGE FROM THE LOST EXPEDITION
“We are alive. The hives here need help, too.”

The bees have reached another planet: Nexara . Its hives have been occupied as well. Your new allies Elyss, Nerith and the other queens shelter their people in tiny refuges. The signal is fading. Time to set out!

03 · A NEW THREAT ON NEXARA

An ancient power.
An endless appetite.

Vaelkor has awakened a green energy called Veyr. As it spreads, it draws in the life and energy around it. Vaelkor grows stronger while Nexara's colonies lose their homes.

Find the lost expedition, defeat the ancient invaders and help the queens. A whole new world is waiting to be saved.

A FEW QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU GO?

Your questions.
Our answers.

A few things to know before your first game.

What kind of game is Hex Clash?

Hex Clash is a single-player turn-based strategy game played on a hexagonal board. It combines checkers-style captures with magical cards, queens and story-driven campaigns. Plan your tactics and find a path to the rival queen.

Do I need to know checkers or chess?

No. The basic idea is simple: move to an empty hexagon, jump over a rival when you can and protect your queen. Start with the in-game tutorial, then learn to use cards and chain your captures.

What do TBS game and turn-based tactics mean?

TBS stands for turn-based strategy: players take turns to make their moves. Turn-based tactics focuses on positioning and tactical decisions on the board. Hex Clash brings both ideas together in a world of hives for fans of hex grid strategy and tactical RPGs.

Can I play offline?

Yes. Hex Clash is a single-player strategy game you can play offline. Download the desktop version from Steam to your computer. This website introduces the game and links to its Steam store page.

What does The Verdant Conquest add?

The Verdant Conquest takes you to six new regions of Nexara, with 42 challenges and six queens waiting to be rescued. The Nexara campaign opens after your Hexanor journey.
