Two-Player Hex on One Device

Black to play

Put the Screen Between You

Play face to face without a physical set. Put one device between two people, take turns, and pause whenever you want to talk through a move.

Clear turns, one shared board

Black plays first and White follows. Set the device between you so both can see the hex grid, even with no network.

A useful way to teach

Pause over a key move, check whether two cells actually touch or a path already reaches an edge, undo if both players agree, and try the position again.

One board, one set of rules

Two-player Hex stays on a fixed 11×11 grid. Black connects left to right, White top to bottom, and touching cells count. For a fair set, play two games so each person takes Black once.
