- Hexcells Part 2 - I see you guys enjoy this game! Good news is that I enjoy it a bunch as well. This time I check out the random puzzle generator. Every puzzle it creates is solvable without guessing, and often extremely interesting. This random puzzle I get is no exception, enjoy the logic puzzle!

I made the choice to cut out a lot of my silent thinking this time (this puzzle was HARD!), and I hope the flow of the video still holds up.
Wow cool!
I’m here early lucky
Hexagons are the bestagons

Tyler in this game: "so if this one is blue then this means that that one can't be blue but because of that bracketed 2 we do a backflip and also this 5 means we have to build a dangling road and all this together means that this cell that hasn't even been talked about until this point has to be blue"
*and he's always right*
Do a backflip to the pingspoofer for the blue cell, and dont forget the photosynthesis cartwheel in shattercap ballistic typography for every 3rd
Hard to catch along what tyler sees
I think Hexagon Is Blue
"And it's just that easy, simple"
I think this game really shows that Tyler got a cs degree
The fact that each 'random' seed is pre-proofed means that it's a solved game, and that the algorithm for solving is probably very simple. It'd be nice to see the dev's solving algorithm, just to see what the computer's approach is when compared to a person's approach to solving. It'd be interesting to see if a computer has any efficiencies over the human brain's solving method, assuming the algorithm is single-threaded and not multi-threaded, where it could solve multiple chunks at once if it were multi-threaded.
Honestly, might just be that it randomly generates a pattern of blues and grays, and then assigns numbers that make it solvable, but who knows
I would think to generate a solvable puzzle it would just iteratively remove unused information until it was satisfied with the difficulty, so it wouldn’t need a solving algorithm per se, it would just need an un-solving algorithm
@@NStripleseven agree, i was also wondering how they things are related to the seed, so the seed should either give information to create the puzzle, or the puzzles are somehow sorted in a way that relates to the puzzle... or maybe its the end arrangment of blues and greys, its a number in binary (blue or gray oviously so binary in some way), and maybe shuffled somewhat
My guess is that they generate a random puzzle and then check if there is a unique pattern of blues and greys satisfying the restrictions. If there is one, it is solvable. So there is no need for solving or un-solving algorithms. This is what they do with sudokus (it's called linear programming)
@@algc19 This is how sudokus are mass produced, but not how sudokus containing advanced technices like "Set theory" are made.
Tyler: making 18 moves in advance just to solve 1 tile
Me: *still processing move 7*
Chess calculating in a nutshell.
Oh so thata where the overlord meme template came from)
YOUR ON 7 IM ON LIKE 3
Somehow I was able to completely follow the last video at the same speed as you were. But in this one I was absolutely lost straight from the beginning. The way you're able to power through this puzzle blows my mind.
Oh now you're just flexing on us. Jokes aside, loving the Hexcells content! As a minesweeper enthusiast this looks sick, one of the things I'm awful at is brute-forcing solutions by considering all possibilities, it's too much to keep in my head. Seeing your massive brain go to work is truly miraculous
He’s…
FlHEXing on us
I have no idea what’s happening but my brain enjoys it
time to watch tyler play this game while recovering from my headache induced by playing this game
Yoo is this pixelator the greatest
I've done a lot of minesweeper and thus had the impunity to think I had an advantage to this game and would be able to find solutions faster than you like with the first video of this game. That arrogance was crushed mercilessly, thank you
hi, really liked the last episode, hope this one is just as good!
Also the next one
It was just as good if not better!
I read this in Madeline’s voice and I do not regret it.
This game is super relaxing to watch! You solve the puzzles faster than I could possibly ever think but all the explanations make perfect sense.
I'm so surprised that this game has me HOOKED. What a lovely logic puzzle game!
Just one more reminder of how impressively good at puzzles Tyler is! I've been playing pencil-and-paper puzzles like this for years, not this exact game but many of this type share strategies and heuristics, and that puzzle would've taken me much longer than 20 minutes to solve! Even though I understand all the thought processes and patterns here, my brain just can't track the info and hypotheticals as well as he can, especially at parts like 5:00 :)
Don't forget he takes many cuts
@@alexismiller2349 The completion screen of the puzzle shows your total time, and his was 20:51 . I can still say for sure that if I were making this video, I'd have to cut out much more than 9 minutes!
Processing speed isn't everything. I am Slow Brain. Slow Brain = Big Brain
@@joshmidd Processing speed isn't everything, but if he can solve the exact same logic problem as me, using the exact same steps and deductions that I'd use, but in less time, wouldn't you say that's a strict upgrade? I'm sure I have things I'm better at than Tyler, but deductive reasoning puzzles aren't among them!
In this context, yes. In life, not necessarily. But I think that is pretty reasonable since people are good at different things, which you pointed out before.
On the flip side, I get more time of entertainment from puzzle games and fast brain people still spend the same amount of money on them as me so... Stil:l slow brain = big 🧠
Please keep playing this so that I can learn your ways. This has helped me learn new techniques when playing on my own, but I am no where close to the amazing big brain plays of this video LOL
I absolutely love watching you complete all these puzzles!
150. He said blue around 150 times. I did actually watch the video but it was hard not to count lol. Keep up the great content, im loving this game!
That’s about 4.8 Blue’s every minute!
@@qorbo7908 how is that 4.8 blues a minute?
@@Turtle828 yea it’s like 12 or so
@@qorbo7908 isnt that 4.8 seconds per blue
@@Turtle828 Based on my record, i most definitely did the math wrong lol.
Wow that was a sick puzzle! The logic chains were incredible, I’m super interested in more content with this difficulty! It’s great to see you in your element.
11:29 "you can punch in whatever you want as long as it's under ten thousand"
meanwhile seeds are well above ten million
all the brain power in the world when it comes to puzzle solving, but -5 brain cells dedicated to counting. never change Tyler
braincells specialized in logic, not maths lol
I love watching you play a game where you can really see the gears turning, but the game isn't frustratingly difficult or unfair.
i played this game a while ago but your last video made me wanna play it again. finally beat the game today but watching you is on a whole other level, especially because in this puzzle game i actually fully understand the rules. i’d love to see more hexcels content in the future because it is mind boggling.
Love how you work it out in your head but out loud. It's the only way i can describe it because i do the same exact thing which is yet another reason i love watching you
This game made me come back to this channel, good content Tyler
I love watching you figure out how to do these types of puzzles. You should continue uploading these types of puzzles.
Please do more of these! Watching you work your way through these blows my mind every time
I could watch Tyler play this game for hours. Your commentary fits so well with this game
I'm so glad you are actually good at puzzle games. There are very few good puzzle youtubers/streamers out there. I remember when you had less than 100 subs. Really happy your channel is growing :)
I need more of this series right away
The way you solve these puzzles reminds me of Sudoku Solving. I can see you getting really good at Sudoku using certain techniques that you have used here
Thank you for the dark background, I watch these at night to help me relax before bed, and my eyes are very thankful
This series is amazing, keep it up
This is an amazing solve. Please play more! I feel like I am watching a younger version of Simon from the Cracking the Cryptic channel. Puzzle games truly are your calling. I could watch this every day.
I wanna see a Collab between them
I got this game because of last episode when you were speeding through all the hexes and I could barely process your reasoning and together with my friend we've been having tons of fun going through the campaign levels, thanks for the game Tyler
3:58 imma have to replace the fuse on my brain.
I thought I was joking the other day saying how sexy it is if Tyler to explain how he’s solving but it’s genuinely really calming
After seeing your last video I tried this game while streaming to a few of my friends, we still got stuck on a ton of the normal levels and sometimes getting past with at least 4 mistakes then here you are swimming through these puzzles making them look easy with some thinking, love it.
This video contains 145 instances of the word, 'blue'. As this video is 11:46 long, 'blue' was said on average every 4.87 seconds. The first 'blue' is said at 1:01, and the final 'blue' is at 11:03. This means for the main 'blue' portion of the video blues were said at a pace of every 4.15 seconds. This has been a blue PSA.
replying to bring this up
Blue
Very very blue

"you can punch in whatever you want, as long as it's under 10000"

Bought this game immediately after your first video, been going through the campaign. It's a lot of fun and hope to see more of it from you!
Welcome back? I need to see more of this man!
So many RUclips gamers have personality, but aren't actually that good at their games, especially those who play mini strategic games. That's why I like this channel. Aliensrock is actually really good.
Your Hexcells videos are realy satisfying to watch.
I still recommend Tametsi. It has over 100 hand-crafted Minesweeper levels, each with their brilliant touch of logic and I still haven't beaten all of them after 70+ hours.
100%. It gets a lot more difficult than hexcells. I've been stuck at around the 80s for the past month.
@@faisalalsharaf5823 Yeah that's around where I'm at too. The non-conventional levels really trip me up (corners don't count, multiple shapes in one level, etc.)
On time and loving this game. Keep it up Tyler!!
The way your figuring out what can and cannot be blue with looking at the numbers reminds me of doing Sudoku puzzles.
I feel like this video showed of the challenge of this game a lot better than the previous one, thanks.
Tyler really shining here, looks like his forte really is sudoku/minesweeper (cos that utilising of the horizontal 6 column was some true sudoku logic, btw genius)
I actually like mine sweeper and this content is good. Ima get this game
the idea of these always being solvable without guessing is great, but there is also another interesting way to go about it: allow the player to mark a tile as completely unknowable.
There is this amalgamation of puzzles that you have to solve to view SCP-2212, and for the image you have to solve most of a nonogram, but there are a few parts of puzzle that cannot be solved, and the way you get a key for the larger part of the puzzle is with the unsolvable bits. It makes it interesting with you having to commit to "it's not that just that I don't know, it's that I can never know with the information given"
I love this game. And I love watching you play it. Keep it up bro.
I have no idea whats going on but the fact you always get it right is so impressive
So I started your channel on the btd6 stuff and while you yourself are really entertaining, I haven't enjoyed any of the games as much. This, however, is amazing. Absolutely love it.
Edit: Also love the alchemist video too
Hey Tiler, its so good to see you having such passion for a game so quickly.
i'm loving this, the puzzles are challenging but doable
I think a good feature for this game to have would be a sudoko style marking option that can be easily undone. Maybe a toggle button that lets you put small blue or black marks in unsolved squares instead of solving them? It'd make it much easier for viewers to follow along too.
Wow hexcells. Got this game YEARS ago. Strange you haven't seen it until now but there's a lot of great games that people miss.
Tyler's straight up doing proofs BWOC. Lots of fun to watch
Tyler when he sloved the 4: "Oh yeah, its all coming together"
There's a 3d minesweeper like game with hexagons/pentagons, squares, or triangles, and its really good.
"At least one of these have to be blue no matter what. If this cell is blue then one of these cells would have to be blue, that would complete the 4, meaning this cell would be not blue. Now if this cell is not blue it doesn't matter by itself, but the fact is this column would then be complete, so both this cell and this cell would not be blue, meaning this 6 would be incomplete, so this cell cannot be blue."
I like your funny words, magic man.
The ammount of times tyler say blue is so funny
Blue counter: over 9000
145 times to be exact, but after the first 40 the word lost all meaning to me
U actually spent all ur times counting
I'm proud of my ability to keep up with all the moves Tyler makes when playing hexcells
IM ABSOLUTELY LOVING THESE!
I'm just impressed. That's all I can really say because wow, you solved that quickly.
man, from bloons to this minesweeper thing game, we really stuck through the years.
Because we watch him for the minesweeper content. He’s finally learning how to satisfy his fan base
Can confirm. Hexcells Infinite's random generator has given me many hours of great puzzles to solve.
I am both impressed by his logic and cringing with how long it took him to notice the easy diagonal four column XD
This was posted on my birthday, I love it
I just saw tyler do mathematical proofs of reductio ad absurdum for around 5 min straights. Awesome
Not even a 12:00 AM release will stop me from watching
Ugh! His mind is brilliant!
I'm just here staring blankly as Tyler speaking the blue blue not blue into existence.
This was really cool to watch!
when u realise somthing SLIGHTLY before tyler: welcome to downtown coolsvile
Amazing game! Can t wait for the next video!
Yay new hexcells episode!
The 8-digit random code means that there are potentially 100 million random puzzles and the dev solved every one of them. Madlad (and about half of the puzzles are the difficulty in the video)
How bees make their hives:
I love how this game really shows how you think! More! More!
I would absolutely love to see aliensrock and smallant to play a game together, they're both geniuses
Cracking the cryptic is a great channel to check out if you like watching people solve logic puzzles such as this
Hexcells is amazing and beautifully charming, but Patterna is absolutely worth checking out!
I suck at these type of games as I’m impatient most times, I saw every puzzle and was thinking “ima go quit” lol
I thought I had one and he was just going in circular logic for the longest time and then when he finally clicked it...I was wrong.
@@Calekoflight that S U C K S like you try so hard, get an answer, and it’s wrong :(
Tyler going galaxy brain 30 moves into the future and I'm stuck following on move 4 solving why one tile must be blue LOL. This game seems super fun but damn do I have trouble following along. love the content though. this is 10/10 gameplay even if I'm smooth braining it
My subconscious understands what's going on but I don't lol. keep the vids coming there still enjoyable
This was brilliant tyler
you seem very good at solving these puzzles
This audio would make a fun base for a remix.
I love how all of the commentary is some version of the question: can this be blue?
YESSSS!! Keep Hexcells going!
My brain couldn’t keep up with the beginning part 😂
Him: "That's logical" / Me: "Yup, not following."
This Dorfromantik update is wild
This is so much fun to watch
Damn that was a good episode of Orange or Blue!
Finally, 4D Minesweeper
I tried to be up with Tyler's solving, but at a certain point I lost it and I was like "That can only be blue because those three are always blue and that one can't be blue blue blue this is the story of a blue hexcell that lived in a blue world. Everything was blue, even his car and his girlfriend and his Tyler are blue
Take a shot everytime he says blue... And you are hammered after 5 minutes
These videos have been amazing.
Take a shot every time Tyler says "Blue"
I love puzzle games, but for some reason never got into minesweeper. Played it a few times, but it never really grabbed me. This game looks like a lot of fun though.
