Strategy Fun

I love hexagon strategy games! This one is very easy to just pick up and play without spending hours reading a manual. Yet there is a nice depth to the game due to each animal's special skills. Plus the each animal can only attack in certain directions, adding a nice strategic element. The story and characters are somewhat on the childish side. (Would have loved to see monsters and heros doing battle with some epic storyline.) But they are nicely drawn and fit with the pick up and playability of the game. My only real concern is the length and replay ability of the game. It seems you can go through a level quickly (at least early on) since you only need to win 50% of the board to advance. I'm sure that this will become more difficult in later levels, but I'd love to see a leader board (percentage) for each level. So you would want to go back and beat your best efforts or some other incentive to replay the levels. I hope they make this game universal with some bigger maps for more in-depth play. For the first release version it's great fun for those who like strategy games. Plus it's a pretty easy jumping on price. Give it a try.

Addictive, cute and tough to beat on Story Mode, this adventure is one worth paying for.
Would be WAY more interesting...

...if you could rotate the pieces! As designed, you can only place them in their fixed orientation. This leads to pieces being somewhat useless on certain parts of the board and also as a match progresses. Why the designers chose to not allow rotation is mind-boggling.
Nice twist on Chess!

Everlands is a great board game. It reminds me in way of "Chess" as you really have to strategize and think about your moves...but with this game you've got much cuter game pieces and you're playing on a hex board, which is also different from "Chess". You can play against the AI in "Story Mode" or you can play against someone else right on your device, just by passing it back and forth in "Duel Mode". It will definitely will give your brain cells a good workout. It comes with a detailed "Help" which is worth taking the time to read and also includes a "Tutorial" that you can play. You will also find in the game "pop-ups" available to you that will help you out and there are also "hints" available for when you really get stuck. The game has nice bright colorful tiles with cute characters on them and a nice soundtrack. If you like "Chess" or similar type board games, this one is worth adding to your collection.
Very well drawn and fun.

I am glad I found this board game gem when I was browsing through the new releases. Colorful and a lot of fun for a strategy game. Update: It kept me up till 4am playing it. I couldn't stop!
Beautiful and deep.

Charming graphics and great strategic gameplay makes Everlands a must play for board and war game fans.
Very original and addicting

Hexage has made some awesome games. In fact, out of the 4 games they have released, I love all of them. I wish I could have all 4 for my iPad this moment, but they are not all done yet :( Everlands is a game that caught my attention pretty quick. I love games like Devil Invasion, Battle of Puppets, etc. In Everlands, animals have strength / attack points and life / health points. You place them on a grid of hexagons and do battle. It's a very cute strategy game, turn based. Very well done and highly recommended!
I LOVE this game. But...

First and foremost, I have to say...I highly enjoyed this game. I've played through the campaign twice and my girlfriend and I play the head to head sometimes. It's simple, yet it requires a fair bit of thought (difficult but not impossible). It also has a smooth learning curve. I would've given you 5 stars...but I felt like there just wasn't enough gameplay. I would like a second campaign, or some sort of "free-play" mode. Or, one step further: a custom level-maker (design the hex pattern and decide which animals can be used). This game has so much potential, but if I gave you 5 stars, you'd have no incentive to improve it. Keep working on this great game, hexage.net, and I'll come back with a perfect rating. :)
