In a creaky old tavern, in a forgotten corner of the video game universe, a storm is raging. The barkeep gets a patchy phone call. It's hard to tell what the caller is saying, but this much is clear: someone in this tavern is planning a murder.
There are six patrons of the tavern; all of them are video game genre protagonists gone astray. There's The Spacemarine, The Sorceress, The Platformer, The Fighter, The Apocalypse Survivor, and The First Person Perspective. By exploring their memories you may discover the identity of the murderer... or you may find a much darker secret.

In The Hex you will...

Control the six patrons to explore the dark and enigmatic tavern
Delve into the memories of these cast-aside game protagonists to learn the truth of their past
Learn the identity of the would-be murderer... as well as the victim

This game is about as indie as it gets.
