I get quite a few questions about how (my) Hex Flowers work. Fairly recently I uploaded some videos to YouTube where I playtest these HFs with accompanying diagrams:

 

• • Video 1 – HF used to explore into a maze like giant insect nest using ‘Carapace’

 

• • Video 2a – HF used to explore out of a maze like giant insect nest using ‘Carapace’

 

• • Video 2b – (if necessary jump to time ~ 1hr 16min) – HFs used to generate wilderness terrain, weather and encounters (procedural Hex Crawl) using ‘In the Heart of the Unknown’

 

• • Video 3 – continuing using HFs to procedurally generate wilderness terrain, weather and encounters (procedural Hex Crawl) using ‘In the Heart of the Unknown’

 

• Video 4 – Party get in a pickle – Trial by Jury Hex Flower

• • Complete Playlist – as above, but including all the actual plays e.g. boss fights etc.
