Hyperplex 3D
Hyperplex 3D is a remaster of a popular MS-DOS, Amiga game called Supaplex which was
created by Philip Jespersen and Michael Stopp, and published by Digital Integration in 1991.
What is the game about?
The game was was notorious for it’s difficulty. Many levels require you to think thoroughly before making any move. The main character is called Murphy. His goal is to reach the exit of each level, in order to do this he must collect enough infotrons. However, in order to collect these objects you have to navigate through difficult puzzle-like levels where you have to think before you act. Making it a difficult but rewarding experience.
Base game features
- 111 Playable levels that contain easy to difficult puzzles, which amount to hours of playtime
- Multiple objects to interact with, such as Enemies, Bombs you can drop, ports you can go through and terminals that explode floppys.
- Some levels have gravity, meaning the player falls down, adding an extra level of difficulty.
- Yellow floppys that introduce sokoban-like puzzles to the game.
What does this remake add to the game?
This version contains all original 111 levels and attempts to have all the features of the original game, and even more. It is a modernized 3D remake, this means it plays more smoothly and it’s slightly faster compared to the original game. Made to be more fitting to the current generation of games.
Extra features
- A level editor that allows you to create and share levels with friends
- The ability to save the game during a level, being able to continue where you left off when you have exited the game or when you have died.
- And the ability to slow down time, to make specific maneuvers easier to pull off.
- Ability to skip 3 levels after your last finished level

A really good version of the old classic Supaplex. This version is very pleasing on the eye and the animations are a nice touch. I bought this game before its Steam release and can safely say that the developer cares about it and updates regularly.
Yes you could find versions of this game elsewhere and yes you could use an emulator, but this is a whole new playing experience and is a lot of fun to boot.
I hope to see more levels and more players in the future!

The Supaplex remake in full 3D. Looks and feels quite different, but it's still Supaplex, with its 111 levels.
There are quite a lot of remakes of this classic arcade/logic game, but adding an additional dimension to the graphics after so many years make it totally worth to replay at least some of the levels.

Very nice game. It is not as polished as 'Supaplex classic'. You can save at any time and there is no annoying autosave (as in Supaplex that overwrites your saves at bad situations). I will post more impressions later.

Very cool cover for Supaplex.
I like the level maker and the 2.5D-3D look.
What is missing here is the original music of the game.
Also - the rocks sound is too dramatic.

Cool retro game. Used to play it when I was a kid and loved it.
It is pretty chill puzzle/arcade-like game. Some of the levels require planing, but that is part of the fun.

Good old Supaplex from 1991 in a slight remastered version. Still a neat little puzzle game.
