Hexic HD was notable for being pre-installed on early Xbox 360 hard drives, later receiving a free digital release on the Xbox Live storefront. Along with a less-pastel appearance and high-definition graphics, Hexic HD features an experimental ambient-techno soundtrack by Jerry Schroeder (which was later released under the album Hexophilia). The game later received two direct sequels: one for the Xbox 360 (as Hexic 2), one for Windows Phone 7 devices (as Hexic Rush). It was later remade as a free-to-play title for both Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 devices (simply titled Hexic). Hexic is a single-player puzzle game that involves a board filled with 90 connected hexagonal pieces of different colors, forming an imperfect square (with 8 pieces in odd columns and 10 pieces in even columns).
The main objective is to use a cursor to rotate clusters of blocks in order to form groups of matching pieces (where one piece matches the color of two adjacent pieces), removing those pieces from the board.
Similar to Bejeweled, the playfield is gravity-based, in which pieces fall down from the top to close any gaps and new pieces arrive from the top of the playfield.
