It’s always nostalgic for me to revisit The Hex but this time it was made sweeter by working alongside the Hex Hanslation group: a team of ultra-talented fans who brought this localization to life. I can’t thank them enough for their hard work.
The team includes: LemonBomb, Meow_meow, YazawaAkiOS, KurakaCJ, North_North, mushr00m, Red0228, Lil_Catt猫猫桑, evilmoth, Frimance, chocho997, Delicia, AlerHughe$ and 8012white
To those new players who are now able to play The Hex: enjoy! - Daniel

The next game... from Daniel Mullins Games...
Boom. I hope you like what you see! In some ways Panda Circus is more similar to The Hex than Inscryption. Multiple game genres will be explored, mixed, hacked to bits, and then put back together into a Frankenstein's Monster.
Thanks so much for playing The Hex :) The true DM Games homies live here. - Daniel
The Hex 1.13 - Japanese and Dutch Translations!
It feels a weird to patch this game after all this time but how could I not when fine folks step up offering to translate it into their languages?
Thank you so much to @hymg000, @plcube, @gyunyu_5959 for their work in translating the many lines of text in The Hex to Japanese.
And many thanks to Thomas De Coster (@linkyen1) for the Dutch localization!
This patch also fixed an embarrassing options menu bug and fixed a bug that had been introduced with a prior patch that broke the ARG secrets trail! Thank you to @Flemmonade_ for pointing that out (and check out his YouTube channel!)
To everyone who has played The Hex, I thank you again!
Thank you very much for your support and for playing The Hex. I believe Inscryption will provide a similarly bizarre and surprising journey.
The Hex - Now in Polish and Brazilian Portuguese!
Thanks to the excellent work of @StdBlueBowling (represented by Michelle "Mitty" Finholdt and Jefferson "Jereffer" Santos) The Hex is now playable in Brazilian Portuguese.
Thank you to Kamila Makowska for the fantastic Polish localization.
See you in The Six Pint.
Russian localization for The Hex is live!
You can now play The Hex in Russian. Enjoy!
Thanks again to Farhad Alishov for his excellent translation work as well as for his work in adding cyrillic characters to the many fonts of the game. I can't overstate how much work is involved in localizing this crazy game.

Russian localization coming soon!
Thank you for being so patient. The Russian localization for The Hex is nearly complete and will be released shortly after the Summer Sale.
The first localization patch is live! French, Italian, Turkish, German, and Spanish!
It was a huge undertaking that spanned months, but I am happy to announce that The Hex is now playable in French, Italian, Turkish, German and Spanish.
I can’t be more thankful to the localization team. They dealt with over 3500 lines of text including riddles, poems, cryptic messages, and more. Most of the dialogue is riddled with codes that control the playback in-game and the team had to accurately translate these as well as the source text. “That's [w:0.3][t:0.05]-ahem [w:0.3][t:0]correct.” is an example of one of these.
You can thank these fine people for making it all happen:
Italian - Marcello Brancaccio
French - Enzo Doyen
Turkish - Berke O. YILMAZ (Secundus)
German - Christian Hecklinger
Spanish - Luis Redin Ochoa (Fusti)
Russian - Farhad Alyshov
An extra thanks to Farhad for his dedication to making sure the localized fonts were faithful to their original versions. His Russian translation is nearly complete so expect it some time in the near future!
For those who have waited to play The Hex in their language, I hope you enjoy!
- Daniel
P.S. There are more languages on the way! If you’d like to see your language in The Hex and want to try your hand at localizing it, please email me at daniel.mullins.games@gmail.com
