this is literally one of the only story games where I've actually wanted to replay it so many times 

Reggie marry me rn.

See, I knew I'd like this game just because of the Halloween theme. What I didn't expect was the emotional attachment I'd have towards the characters and story overall. I ended up playing this live on stream, so I had to restrain myself a bit with my first reactions, but I just know I would've needed to take breaks in between due to MC's story if I played it on my own time first.

Speaking of the MC, I loved how she had a story that was revealed throughout the game. Overall? 10/10, would let this story make me cry again <3

This game has made me so so so happy these past few months. To say I enjoyed it was an understatement. There are so many good things about this game that has made me fall so so in love with all of this! All of the work that went into this lovely game made it such a lovely experience to play! (Spoilers ahead)

The music was made wonderfully and has not failed to make me smile every second of it.  It helped so greatly of the music to fit the mood of the scene. The sound effects are gorgeous!! Ear candy! (there has to be a better term)  And the effects made the game even more engrossed and really helped me immerse myself in the game.  

The backgrounds were beautiful and fit the overall vibe of the game and the sprites are just WONDERFUL. I fell in love with the art and designs of them all!  Gorgeous characters really!  Especially the punch CG

The writing is incredible and didn't fail to make me laugh or scream the entire way through! The way Sabrina's anxiety was depicted stuck with me and reeled me in. The banter between Sabrina and Reggie was so sweet and adorable. The conversations with Jim sold me to them I'm so in love. Renne's compliments and her comfort were done really well! Jack's overall personality and his past being revealed was so cute and fun to learn about!  The voice acting was phenomenal! I loved the fully voiced scene! the talent that went into that entire sequence was fantastic!! I enjoyed the extra-voiced endings but the fight scene stood out to me especially!

Overall this game has connected me to a lovely community and it has taught me a lot! I'm so happy I played this! AMazing amazing game that is amazing!

This was a really great game. The story was fun and the characters were very well developed. Reggie's relationship with the main character was very sweet. You can see how much they connect with each other.

That was a great game,i loved the "tug",my favorite so far,thanks for the game.

IN LOVE, its so perfectly well done that itll make you genuinely smile. Stan Punk in the Tub

Is there any walkthrough of the game?

Because i'm having a hard time to get the endings.

But I really love the game, the voice acting is really good and I really like all the characters  (even Nico even if he is a trashcan), and the main character is very likeable as well :)

the way i smiled with every interaction i had with reggie... i need to touch grass. Not that i want to tho.

May god make you happy like you made me after playing this game i was feeling really down this weekend words cant describe how much you made me smile thank u so much

Very nice! Found it at the exact time for a Halloween party xD

I really enjoyed playing this game! Loved all the characters (Reggie has my heart though) and thought the concept was unique and well-executed. 

A fun and sweet little VN, and perfect for the season!  I originally wanted to play this because of Blooming Panic, a personal favorite of mine. When I saw all the voice actors from Bloomic were here, I had to check it out!

Of course the MC is painfully relatable; any time a character exhibits signs of an anxiety attack I'm always like Yikes this is Too Real 😂 but I appreciate it all the same.

Funny side note, I changed MC's name to my own, which I don't normally do but decided on a whim to do it this time around.....my name is Renee. Imagine my surprise to meet another character with the same name! Our interactions certainly weren't confusing at all 😅

While I enjoyed reading about everyone's individual issues and watching them try to work through them, my favorite has to be Reggie - punk boys are my ultimate weakness 😫 

This game was so warm and sweet, a perfect Halloween treat!

The opening sequence hooked me, partly because I related to it pretty hard and partly because MC was just so lovable. Sensory overload and anxiety suck and I was rooting for her from the jump as she tried her best to press on and enjoy herself.

The love interests also stole my heart- if I had to pick a favorite I'd choose Reggie, but every LI had their own unique charm! I could see myself crushing on any of them in real life, or even just hanging out (group tabletop games featuring Jack's drinks sounds like a dream.) Props to the writing team, art team and voice actors; your magic and efforts added up to great characters I'd be more than happy to party all night with (and maybe talk to again someday?)

Props to the whole dev team, for that matter- all your work made Hearts and Hexes an experience I really enjoyed(!!!). I'll definitely be replaying the game in the coming weeks as I remember how much I miss pre-Covid Halloween parties. Thank you so much for making the game and letting us have a little Halloween fun at home! ❤

PS- Bonus shoutout to Kija for the great soundtrack! I've actually been jamming to HallowB33t while writing this, and I'm still floored that you pulled together so many different ending themes in the span of the jam. Shine on you absolute mad lad.

I've seen this game discussed in a few circles I'm in recently and finally sat down to give it a spin for myself today. The game... is very evidently in alpha: grammatical errors, wordy and unclear descriptions, sections of text that seemed like they were supposed to be removed but were forgotten about and an overbearing amount of poorly-applied metaphors.

 It's hard to tell if the script was proofread before being released to a general audience, although understandably this was probably put together within a short period of time for the Jam. These issues do render the first chunk of this game into a un-immersive slogfest that nearly made me quit. 

I stubbornly pushed through because I wanted to see if I couldn't find something to endear me to the game like my acquaintances seemed to be. After finishing a playthrough of the game (Mage ending) I can confidently say that there are some genuinely endearing lines and moments in this game. The characters working together to tackle their issues are probably the strongest moments in the game.

There is an endearing story at the core of Hearts & Hexes that suffers from clumsy execution.

I look forward to giving it another spin when it is out of alpha.

I am so pleased that I've found this game.  I'm going to say the main thing that made me press play was seeing the voice actors that were selected.  The game was cute and enjoyable, and I like how much care was taken with sensitive subjects. 

 One thing I noticed during the credits, that the voice actor for Jack (curiousinstigator) is credited as Jim, which was a tiny bit confusing.

Very cool game! The love interests were all very sweet. Reggie was definitely my favorite but I also have a soft spot for Jim and his ramblings 😊

I especially liked how the story portrayed anxiety as well as how terrifying and damaging toxic relationships  can be. They can be even scarier than your traditional horror story with ghosts, blood, and the like. 

Glad that the MC got her happy ending in the end <3

The art was really nice as well and I freaking loved the GUI, so adorable! 

Really liking the game. But how do I get on Reggie's route? 

how do i get  nico route? or is he not an option

What a wonderful story!  It was such a fun and immersive journey. As someone who still remembers the awkwardness of college parties, I loved seeing the MC come out of her shell and take a huge step in overcoming her internal struggles. My favorite character was undoubtedly Reggie. I mean, his accent alone, would have gotten me! But he was so adorably sweet and funny, I couldn't help loving him more.  It's going to be hard not choosing him, but I really do want to see the other endings! All in all, this is an amazing game and you guys did an awesome job! 

Hopping on now~ 

I love how throughout the night the mc goes through self-discovery and learns to fight their 'past/demons'. Loving the interactions between characters. Very interesting personalities, glimpses into their past, all fighting/working on their own battles and challenges. The music is top tier~ Loving the dedication put into this project. 

I happened to laugh out loud on multiple occasions haha. A lovely game! (Verryyy charming characters)

 PLAY IT NOW

Amazing work everyone!!~
