Hex Commander: Fantasy Heroes

About

Hex Commander: Fantasy Heroes is a turn-based strategy game where players command armies of humans, orcs, goblins, elves, and dwarves. Battle across hex-based maps using unit abilities, terrain advantages, and base-building to strengthen your forces. The human faction follows Percival Kent, a paladin tasked with uncovering goblin threats in a war-torn kingdom. Players upgrade heroes, customize bases, and use teleportation to shift tactics mid-battle. Each faction offers distinct playstyles shaped by unit traits and campaign goals. The game emphasizes magic as a core mechanic beyond mage units. Percival’s scroll system lets players summon undead, trigger environmental hazards, and disrupt enemy strategies. Multiplayer and co-op modes support cross-platform play on PC, Mac, Linux, and mobile. Released in 2017, it retains a dedicated player base for its tactical depth and modular base customization. The human campaign’s political intrigue and branching choices add narrative weight to each tactical decision.
