About Hexa Word
Hexa Word mixes word association with a bit of sorting. Every level lays out a hex board covered in word tiles, plus a few colored, themed groups along the top. You select a group, then pick out each word that fits it. Right answers lock in at once and the group lights up; a wrong pick just bounces gently back. Clearing every tile into its proper group solves the level.
The real puzzle is the overlap, because some words look as if they could belong to two groups. Content comes in eight themed packs, from Everyday and Cosmos to Mystery and Crime or Sports and Games, and fresh levels are generated without end. There is no timer, the music is soft, and the portrait layout can be played one-handed. Three helpers, Hint, Reveal and Shuffle, are there when you get stuck, and gems can be topped up by watching a short ad.

How to play Hexa Word
Objective
Sort every word tile on the hex board into its correct themed group, untangling the words that seem to fit more than one category.
Controls
Desktop
- Mouse click: select a group, then place a word tile into it
Mobile
- Tap: select a group, then place a word tile into it
Getting started
- Read the colored group names at the top of the screen to learn which themes are in play for this level.
- Tap or click one group tab to make it active before choosing any words.
- Choose the hex tiles whose words fit the active group; correct ones lock in and wrong ones bounce.
- Switch to the next group and repeat until every tile has been sorted, which solves the level.
- Use Hint, Reveal or Shuffle if you stall, and watch a short ad when your gems run out.
Tips
- Sort the obvious words first; once the safe tiles are locked in, the ambiguous ones that could suit two groups have fewer possible homes left.
- Shuffle rearranges the whole board, which can make a connection jump out when you have been staring at the same tiles for a while.
- Reveal finishes an entire group while Hint places just one word, so keep Reveal for a theme you cannot crack at all.
- A wrong pick simply bounces back and no clock is running, so take your time weighing a borderline word against each group.

Hexa Word FAQ
What themed packs does Hexa Word include?
Eight: Everyday, Cosmos, Wild World, Kitchen and Food, Travel and Places, Mystery and Crime, Fantasy and Myth, and Sports and Games. Beyond those packs, levels are generated endlessly, so new boards keep coming.
What happens when you pick the wrong word in Hexa Word?
The tile gives a gentle bounce and stays on the board. A correct word locks into place at once and its group glows, so you always know straight away whether a choice was right.

Yes. It is built for portrait orientation and laid out so you can play one-handed. On a phone you tap groups and tiles, and on desktop you click them with the mouse.
