HEX4 is a simple, yet challenging strategy board game for 2-4 players. HEX4 - The Standard Edition (2 players) Each player has 15 of their own colored player pieces, and play on a hexagon grid board. Players take turns playing their pieces to the grid, attempting to lay 4 of their colored pieces in a row. The game starts off as simple as tic-tac-toe, but once each player has at least 2 of their own colored pieces in the grid, on any future turns they may move an already played piece to CAP their opponent, if they choose. This is where the game becomes dynamic and interesting. Players will continue back and forth - playing new pieces, moving pieces, and capping their opponent - until one player lays 4 of their colored pieces in a row! HEX4 - The Deluxe Edition (2 to 4 players) The Deluxe Edition comes with 60 player pieces (15 of 4 different colors) A standard game of HEX4 last anywhere between 2-5 minutes. We recommend players ages 10+ (although players as young as 4 have beat their grandparents)
