If you have played through the three Hexcells games and want more, Hexceed is a good choice for that, i think. There's plenty of free levels to see if you like this game and if you do, then you can get more levels by buying the DLCs, which don't cost much. The DLCs have regularly introduced new tile mechanics into the game so it keeps evolving as they bring more content in, so that's pretty nice. Unlike Hexcells, this game lets you make mistakes and with me coming from those games it kind of bothered me but later ToastieLabs added features like Hardcore mode in the settings which allow you to have the game reset the level every time you make a mistake so i enabled that rightaway after it got added. :D It's also possible to disable the highlight effects of the special mechanic tiles if you want to map out their "clues" by yourself in your head. :P When i tried it first, i wasn't initially sure if i liked it but i quickly got used to the extra work and have kept it like this ever since....

good
Incomparable distraction for when you want to listen to music but are too addled by apocalypse anxiety to not do anything with your hands.
More than a simple hexagonal minesweeper. The special blocks, gates, etc. add some deepness to the concept. With the season pass, you'll have roughly 80+ hours of gameplay to solve the puzzles. My only grievance is about the in-game achievements. All of them require that you solve all puzzles of a series a certain way, which is next to impossible. The lofi chill music is nice, but gets repetitive quite quickly too. A must-have for all puzzle solving fans.
