HEX Update – Draft Extension

Free weekly draft tickets extended by six months

Hi HEXers. This week, patched this week to improve some things and to fix the Giant Corpse Fly bug that was breaking some games. Hooray! Now, a message from Cory Jones.

Free Draft Extension

WOW, TIME FLIES… can you believe it’s been a year since some of you activated your draft codes?

Over 20,000 drafts have fired off since our beta began! Holy heck that’s a lot of last pick Zodiac Shamans!

Clearly it’s been an amazing year, with some great progress, but it’s also another year you’ve waited, and we have yet to deliver the complete HEX experience. To say “I am sorry it’s taking so long” would be a massive understatement, beyond my desire to have everyone enjoy what’s going to be a mind-blowingly new way to play a TCG, to the time you Kickstarter backers have been waiting for the rewards you were promised.

I understand that nothing I can say or do will make that wait seem any less painful, BUT I do want to want to offer you a little reward for your patience.

We are extending free drafts for another SIX MONTHS… (editor’s note: unredeemed codes will now provide 18 months as well)

I hope this helps make the wait a bit more tolerable, and I promise some pretty great stuff over the course of these next six months.

Love, Cory

Tutorial

Last week we told you already that we have been reaching out to TCG players in order to get them being part of the digital revolution HEX.

So in this week’s update we wanted to bring the players closer to the game, which are not that well-known or even completely new to TCGs. Therefore we have created some awesome How to Play Videos recently. Please have a look and give us feedback to the first one:

Be aware that some UI-elements might be outdated, but those videos needed some production-time, in order to get all languages covered.
