HEXaGEM can be described as a tetris style game but it is so different from the other tetris games some wouldn't agree. There is no objects falling from the top (well sometimes there is) and there is no lines to form. The game is played in a hexagon shaped jewelry box with a hexagon shaped diamond in the middle. Pieces of different colored gems comes in from all sides. The object it to create hexagon shaped gems. You must move the pieces where they stick to the diamond or pieces in the center of the jewelry box or they will float away and you will lose points. When you form a hexagon it will disappear and the remaining pieces will move further to the center.

This is a great game and pretty easy to use once you get the keys down. The graphics and sounds are excellent and when the game first starts there is a closed music box which will open (playing music) and rotate around until you are looking in the center. The shareware version allows you to play until you reach 3,000. This is a very fun game for all ages.
