About this game

Zen Hexagon is a hand-painted jigsaw puzzle game built for moments of calm. Drag, rotate, and snap hexagonal pieces together to slowly reveal original artwork. No timers. No pressure. No AI images. No stock photos. Just real paintings, calming music, and a puzzle that waits for you.

🎨 ORIGINAL HAND-PAINTED ARTWORK
Every jigsaw in Zen Hexagon is a unique painting by artist Coralie Nagel. Sixteen works across five seasons — Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Night — each with its own palette, mood, and hidden details. When you finish a puzzle, you've assembled a real piece of art, not a generated image.

🧩 THREE DIFFICULTY MODES, 48 PUZZLES
Easy (24 pieces, image preview), Medium (40 pieces, image preview), Hard (54 pieces, no hints, no preview). The same artwork plays completely differently at each difficulty — 16 paintings × 3 modes = 48 unique hex jigsaw challenges.

📱 SAVE AS WALLPAPER
Finish a puzzle and save the completed painting as your phone wallpaper. Your screen becomes a rotating gallery of art you've earned, not just downloaded.

🌿 COZY PUZZLE GAMEPLAY
No timers. No pressure. No forced ads between puzzles. Drag to place, tap to rotate, snap pieces home with satisfying animations and gentle sound effects. Pick up for two minutes on a break, or settle in for an hour — the game is the same either way.

🎵 CALMING ORIGINAL MUSIC
Composed to fade into the background of your focus. Smooth crossfade transitions between tracks. Designed to be played at low volume on a commute or with good headphones at home — both work.

🏅 BADGES & PROGRESSION
Collect up to 3 badges per puzzle. Unlock new seasons as you progress. Auto-save so you can put the phone down mid-puzzle and pick up exactly where you left off.

💡 HINTS WHEN YOU WANT THEM, CHALLENGE WHEN YOU DON'T
Stuck on Easy or Medium? Tap for hints that highlight misplaced pieces. Want a real puzzle? Hard mode strips the image preview away and asks you to piece the painting together from scratch — the closest a phone can get to a real jigsaw on a coffee table.
