![]() ![]() Every single action Wick performs costs time, and while you’re performing one action, all enemies around the map are moving and grooving their way to you so they can take you down.Īll actions carried out by you or the many enemies littering the stages are performed simultaneously. Your focus can be regenerated by selecting the Refocus command which causes Wick to take some time to compose himself, which might make you think: Which is the most important resource? Ammunition? Health? Focus? The answer is none of these- it’s time. You essentially zig-zag your way through areas using the game’s hex grid (haha because Hex, get it) until an enemy comes into your line of sight, in which case time stops so you can issue commands.įiring a gun consumes ammo, dodge rolling, performing a takedown, even throwing your gun will cost you focus. John Wick Hex is, instead, a top-down tactical game with a pause mechanic: You select spaces on the field within your movement range in order to make your way through cramped alleys, restaurants, clubs, and harbors. You would think that a series of action movies would spawn a third person shooter or something in similar vein, but that wasn’t the case with this title. The story of Hex is a fun little expansion of the universe’s lore, but nothing mind-blowing or overtly exciting, as it largely is what you would have come to expect from a story featuring a character who is effectively a walking natural disaster for his enemies. ![]() The tale of John Wick Hex is of a fully focused Wick, steeped deep into the underground world of assassinations and rampant murders of nameless schmucks. The story of John Wick Hex takes place before the first movie- before Wick ever encountered Helen, who would later become his wife. Two associates of Wick are kidnapped by a man named Hex, and the titular protagonist takes up a dangerous contract from the High Table to find Hex and do what Wick does best: Kill. The John Wick series of films is reasonably popular, and for good reason: A strong lead actor, a premise that everyone can agree upon (for the first movie who kills a dog?!), and great choreography mesh together to tell the tale of a man who is essentially an angry typhoon: John Wick.
