About the game

Choose a Fighter, Cleric or Mage and travel through linked hub worlds to defeat the Serpent Rider Korax. Hexen adds classes, puzzles and an interconnected world to the DOOM-engine shooter.

Kit's verdict · 7.7/10Ambitious and atmospheric, but its switch-hunting puzzles can be maddening. Kit · Sadkitty Games

Loved

  • Three classes that genuinely play differently
  • Interlinked hub worlds feel like real places
  • Strong atmosphere and music

Not so much

  • Switch puzzles with vague hints
  • Easy to get lost between hub maps

Play it if fantasy fans who like exploration and replaying with different classes.

Skip it if players who want straight-line action without puzzles.

Tips

Play it better

  1. The Fighter is the easiest class for a first run. The Mage is the hardest early on but the strongest at range.
  2. Each class has a super weapon made of three pieces scattered across the world. Find them all.
  3. When a switch opens something 'far away', check the message and go back through the hub's portals.
  4. Use the Disc of Repulsion to push swarms of enemies away.
  5. The Porkalator turns enemies into pigs, and the Dark Servant summons a Maulotaur ally.
  6. Blue and green mana power different weapons. Balance which guns you use so you don't run dry.
