What it solves

The gap

A Hex game needs an AI that plays real shapes within a time limit without freezing the page, plus the swap rule and a clear win display.

What it is

This template gives you a sliced MCTS-RAVE AI with tactical responses, three board sizes and a finished touch and keyboard interface.

How you use it

Unzip, serve the folder and open index.html, then edit game.js; npm test plays it again in headless Chrome.

Source code of a real, playable game to reskin and learn from, with a smoke test whose bot plays it.

Who it is for

Use it when

  • Publishing your own Hex or connection board game on itch.io, web portals or your site.
  • Learning how a complete Hex connection board game is built in plain JavaScript and Canvas 2D.
  • Building a branded mini-game for a client.

Built for

  • Web and indie game developers who know some JavaScript.
  • Developers who want a finished, tested game to build on instead of a blank canvas.

What you get

AI

LEVELS sets the time budget per strength; playoutOnce() and pickChild() hold the whole search.

Rules

connected() and winChain() decide and show the winner; doSwap() mirrors the opening for the swap rule.

No build step

Plain JavaScript and Canvas 2D with no runtime dependencies; open index.html through any static server and edit game.js.

A smoke test

A headless Chrome test loads the game, checks the console, presses keys and taps, and lets the built-in bot play a run to its result screen.

Any static web server to run the game, and some JavaScript. Node.js 22.12 or newer and Google Chrome run the smoke test.

No ad or portal SDK, and English only. It is tested in desktop Chrome and a phone-sized Chrome viewport with touch, not yet on iOS Safari, Firefox or a real phone.
