What's new

Last updated 2026-11-13.

November 4, 2026 — Fewer ads

Fewer ads between levels, in the browser today and in the next Android and iPhone updates.

The first ad comes after your 10th level, then at most one every 4 minutes and every 5 levels, however quickly you solve them.
Playing again after a run never brings an ad.

More of Hex moves now: in the browser today, and in the next Android and iPhone updates.

A 3D Journey map: after a win, your new stars fly onto the level and the next level flips open.
The Hive: new pieces drop into the picture, and a finished picture turns into a gold medallion.
Achievement medals drop in from the top of the screen.
Leaderboards put the top three on a podium, and your row climbs when you move up.
Endless, Drift and the Daily: combo words, a burst for every cleared board, and a heartbeat when the fuse is almost out.
Every level opens with its banner, and the bosses slam in.
Boosters you can see working, and tiles you pick up like game pieces.
The shop shows each Hex Plus perk as a picture, and bought coins pour into your counter.

Clearing a level feels like a win now, in the browser and in the Android app (iPhone next).

A new win box: a ribbon banner, 3D gold stars that slam in, and a PERFECT!, NICE! or SOLVED! stamp. Coins fly into your counter.
Praise as you play: Double!, Great!, Awesome! and Unstoppable! pop up as your fixes chain together.
Win streaks: a flame that grows with every win in a row, a small chest every third win, a Fix at 5 in a row and a Reveal and +3 at every 10.
Lucky gold hex: some levels hide a gold tile. Put it home on your first clear for 15 bonus coins.
Pick a hex: every fifth level, flip one of three hexes for coins or a booster.
World complete: finishing a world gets its own celebration, with your emblem and the chest.
Slow-motion finish on the winning swap, and stronger buzz in the app.

The home screen is new, in the browser and in the iPhone and Android apps.

A 3D honeycomb home: every game is a glossy hex tile. Tap Play to pick up your Journey where you left off.
The Daily gift lives on home now: tap Claim and watch the coins pour into your counter.
World chests pay out the same way.
Frozen tiles look like real ice and shatter when they thaw.
