Havannah: Connection Game

Havannah is an abstract strategy board game: the hexagonal connection game by Christian Freeling, here with a computer opponent at four levels, short lessons and puzzles. White and Black place one stone per turn: stones never move and are never captured. The first to form a bridge, a fork or a ring wins.

• Three ways to win: a bridge joins two corners, a fork reaches three different sides, a ring closes around at least one cell
• Play the computer at four levels: Easy, Medium, Strong and Master (the Master level comes with the Master pack)
• Hexagonal boards of base 5 and 6; bases 7 and 8 come with the Master pack
• Choose White, Black or a random colour; White always moves first
• Optional pie rule: after the first stone, Black may swap it, which balances the advantage of moving first
• Two players on the same phone
• Four interactive lessons: the bridge, the fork, the ring and double threats
• 20 puzzles where White wins in two moves, with one to three stars each
• Tap once to see a shadow stone, tap again to place it: no slips on small cells (it can be switched off)
• Undo, and automatic saving of the game in progress
• Zoom and pan on the large boards
• Statistics: games, wins, win rate and streaks; with Master, also wins by opponent and by figure
• A wooden board with brass details, soft sounds and optional vibration
• Available in 10 languages

A board game for players who like Go, Hex and other connection games: simple rules, deep play, and a computer opponent that scales from the first game to master level.

Havannah shows ads: a banner in the menu and, now and then, an ad after a finished game or a solved puzzle, never during a game. Videos are always your choice: watch one to get a hint in a puzzle. Optional purchases: No ads; Master (the strongest opponent, the boards of base 7 and 8, and complete statistics); Jade and obsidian stones (a second set of stones, looks only).
