Hex Vault - a Hex: Shards of Fate Fan Site
Hex Vault
Here are some pictures from GenCon, the Cryptozoic’s (CZE) booth (Hex:Shards of Fate takes center stage, but CZE’s other games are also represented), the Hex League Play area, and some gameplay screenshots (and a couple of new spoilers and a VERY hungry Mushwocky!). Notably, and as promised, Cory delivered funktion’s hug:
Hex is awesome! It’s not perfect yet, but I’d be more than happy to play it the way it is. The UI is beautiful, the gameplay was really responsive, and, with minor exceptions, it was really easy to pick up and play. I played 4 of the decks: the ruby Burn deck was a LOT of fun (and lethal) and the blood/wild bunnies were awesome (and multiplied like, well, bunnies…). Some minor bugs, and some not particularly obvious gameplay elements, but I imagine they’ll get fixed pretty quickly.
Difficult day for the CZE folks – all of the wireless networks were completely unusable so they had to change course and do everything using switches and ethernet cables (which they had to procure). That added up to a ~5 hour wait for some of us to actually play Hex at the Hex League area. Not quite the day many of us expected, but pretty successful by the end of the night .The CZE folks were rock stars in the face of significant adversity! It took quite an effort to get us the game, but it was well worth it in the end.
We’ll have much more time to take (better) pictures and post more frequent updates tomorrow!

Welcome to Hex Vault!
Things will be a little spartan around here for the next week or so, but expect a big launch (with some incredible giveaways!) in the very near future.
I’m in the midst of putting together Hex Vault, a Hex: Shards of Fate information/fan site: blogs, articles, YouTube videos, convention reports, tournament coverage, etc. It will be a week or so before the final logos, website art, etc. are finished and the various sites launch officially, however, these are all the places you’ll eventually be able to interact with Hex Vault:
