Hexa Shooter 2048 is a merge shooter that features elements from 2048 and bubble-popping games. The player's primary goal is to create a 2048 piece.
The game starts with a row of empty six-sided polygon, or hexagon, spaces and a hexagon-shaped projectile marked with a number. The player shoots the projectile at one of the spaces. If the next projectile has the same color and number, they target the space next to it. The game slides the one projectile toward the other to merge the two pieces and create a new, higher-numbered piece.
For example, a 2 piece merged with another 2 piece creates a 4 piece. If the player accidentally merges three of a kind, the game treats the projectiles as two pieces and loses a piece for a future merge. Additionally, whenever the player merges or shoots pieces at a lower row, a new row appears. If a new row and shot occur too close to the bottom of the screen, they lose the game.
Hexa Shooter 2048 helps the player free up space and unmake rows. The player merely needs to destroy a hexagon piece using the hammer booster in the lower-right area.�
