The Genihex board is constructed from small equilateral triangles that form a larger hexagon shape. This layout maximizes the possible combinations that can be created within the limited space. The small triangles can be combined to form larger triangles and more complex polygonal shapes in two dimensions. Single Genihex boards can also be placed together to create even larger combined shapes. Players use colored beads on the board(s) to form different shapes, with the number of players depending on the number of colors available. By adding 3D pins to the board, the geometric shapes can be constructed in three dimensions as well, providing infinite possibilities for different types of games.

The Genihex® Board
The board is constructed from small equilateral triangles,
the triangles altogether forms a hexagon, from were the
name Genihex® geni ‘genius’ and hex ‘six’.
The layout of the board maximises the number of
possible combinations in a limited space.
The small triangles combined in combinations to form
larger triangles and more complex polygonal shapes
(Two-Dimensional) as illustrated.
Single Genihex® boards can be placed together to
increase the area and create larger compounded shapes.
All the shapes can be formed on the board or boards by
using coloured beads, the number of players depends on
the number of colours. Every player selects a colour for
example player one red, player two green and player
three blue. (See rules for 2D games)
By adding the 3D pins to the board, we can construct the
geometrical shapes in 3-Dimensions providing an infinite
number of possibilities.
Play thousands of games, from very easy to very complex (See Basic Genihex®). Print alphabetical letters on the beads
and play 3-Dimensional word games (See 3D Wordx). Add numbers to the beads and play 3D Rummy, 3D MathX,
combined numbers and letters or geometrical shapes and words or play 3D Solitaire.
