Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Hexologic uses simplified visuals - you will see a bunch of hexagonal shapes stacked together to make rows and columns, shaping into a certain pattern.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
I'd try explaining them, yet doing so with words would only be confusing, as visualizing the gameplay is much easier.
29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
The interface is intuitive, allowing the player to focus entirely on solving puzzles without visual clutter.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack complements this perfectly: a gentle, almost meditative arrangement of piano notes and ambient tones that encourages concentration without fading into monotony.

(For the next week or so from the time of writing, the launch discount of 30% off is quite nice as well).
