HexcavateHexcavate

Turn hex tiles until their carved grooves connect, roll bombs down the route into the boulders in the way, and finish the road for Bram's cart. HEXCAVATE is a cozy path puzzle about two dwarfs digging deeper, one floating island at a time: you turn the tiles, Odger loads the bombs, Bram drives the cart, and the crew fetch the gold.

TURN THE TILES

Click a tile and it lifts, turns and settles with a click, rerouting every groove on it. Left click turns it one way, right click turns it back. A red glow shows the path a bomb would take; the goal is a road from the entrance to the Deep Hole.

ROLL THE BOMBS

Odger heaves a bomb onto the pad and it rolls wherever your grooves lead, crossing from tile to tile. Nothing goes off on its own: where a groove ends, the bomb dozes off under its lantern and waits until a turn wakes it.

BLAST THE BOULDERS

A bomb that reaches a boulder lights its fuse and goes BOOM. Gold and black powder fly out, the crew fetch them, and the powder makes more bombs. Between islands, the Forge turns your gold into bigger blasts, faster rolls and a fuller satchel.

RIDE THE ROAD DOWN

Join the last groove and the whole road lights gold. Bram rides every bend you set, leaps into the Deep Hole, and the next island is waiting below.
