I've been playing with this game (hex) using six through many revisions.  It now appears that the latest version has been hard masked.  I wonder why.  I don't see anything wrong in its function, even under KDE 4, although it does not show up in my menus without help.

It has not undergone an upgrade in a few years, but it was still entered in the Computer Olympiad in 2009.  It didn't win, but made a fair showing.

Six depends on kde 3.5, which has been hardmasked for removal from the
portage tree. I believe you can use the kde-sunset overlay to keep it
around if you really need it. Or maybe there's a version in the works
for KDE 4?
