A connection game played on a triangular board made up of hexagonal cells. The object is connect the three sides of the board by a continuous path. Pieces are hexagonal tiles that contain both players' colors. Players alternate turns, placing a tile in one of three possible orientations on a board hexagon. The game now comes in several different rule-set flavors, including one called "Hex Gate" in which, as in Hex, players try to connect their own sides of the board with a continuous path of their own color
