There's something about hexagons which make them look inherently advanced. This makes sense, since they're stylish yet practical. They slot together like squares, but look more complicated despite being more efficient to build with (a hexagon has a greater area for the length of its sides than a square, hence why bees use hexagonal honeycombs for storage). Board games, especially wargames, often use hexagons instead of squares because it allowed for clearly laid out movement in six directions without "diagonal" movement across corners. Not to mention even the name Hexagon sounds futuristic. Honeybees and their hexagonal construction projects may be the cause of the hexagon's aesthetic appeal to mean "alien civilization", but this trope is also justified by the hexagon's efficiency and versatility in nature, science and engineering, much like smooth sleek curves and solid, practical looking blocks. Carbon, which possesses 6 electrons forming hexagonal atomic bonds, and today the basis for modern polymers, semiconductors and the molecular structure of every single living thing in existence, is naturally inclined to form hexagonal molecules due to the way it bonds, and it is this structure that gives diamond and other carbon allotropes their strength.note Graphite being the odd one out, since it's made up of covalently bonded "sheets" of such molecules which slide over one another. In engineering the hexagon finds usefulness in dome structures (since they're much easier to produce a curve with than squares), solar panels (which benefit from the aforementioned area-to-edge ratio) and hexagonal floor tiles (which look cooler than boring old rectangles). The Beehive Barrier is a very common subtrope. See also Carbon Nanotubes. Compare Everything Is an iPod in the Future and Our Weapons Will Be Boxy in the Future. Contrast Zeerust (which this trope may well become when Science Marches On). See also: The Aesthetics of Technology. |

Even their holographic platforms featured in dungeons and jumping puzzles elsewhere in the world are translucent, blue hexagons. | |

In Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, hexagons are a recurring pattern throughout the story, but it gets really extreme once you enter the final "dungeon". The Big Shell's outer buildings were hexagonal, the shells themselves form a double hexagon, some of the textures on Raiden's stealth suit exude a hexagonal pattern, the skin of Arsenal Gear itself is covered with a hexagonal pattern. The game case design had a hexagonal pattern on the back of it, so did the original disc. Most official supplemental materials (strategy guides, concept art, making-of materials) had either subtle or blatant hexagonal themes. In fact, since Metal Gear Solid 2, hexagonal design has been a really big thing to them. | |

All over the place in Civilization: Beyond Earth: the box art is of a person standing in front of a hexagon-shaped door out to space, the various leaders of the game tend to wear clothing with repeating hexagon symbols, and various technologies in the game bear hexagons.

In Halo, a lot of Forerunner technology incorporates hexagon shapes and symbols. Covenant tech and textures have also employed extensive use of hexagons; perhaps a result of copying Forerunner tech? In addition, the UNSC has gotten in the trend (take note of the visors on MJOLNIR armor worn by Spartan-IV). Perhaps a result of copying Forerunner and Covenant tech? Halo Infinite: All over Zeta Halo are clusters (and sometimes sheer walls) of big, hexagon-shaped metal pillars coming out of the ground, looking not unlike basalt. It is eventually revealed that they are part of Halo's infrastructure, and also its method of repairing itself (give or take a few million years). |

The tactical displays on the Klingon cruiser's bridge in Star Trek: The Motion Picture were hexagon-heavy. Also, towards the end of the movie, the steps leading up to V'Ger's centre are shaped like hexagons. Of course, by Star Trek standards Klingons usually aren't seen as particularly high-tech and advanced. It does make it look more alien than the Enterprise's more human aesthetics. | |

While most of the Fallout series follows a Zeerust aesthetic, Fallout: New Vegas has an area in the more conventionally sci-fi Old World Blues DLC called the X-66 Hexcrete Archipelago, consisting of massive hexagonal structures made of concrete.

Super Mario Bros.: The Cyberpunk-inspired Neo Bowser City in Mario Kart 7 and its remake in Mario Kart 8 have some futuristic hexagonal motifs. The minigame Mario Matrix in Mario Party 8 is a glowing hexagon clicking game Inside a Computer System. Super Mario 3D World has the levels Honeycomb Starway and Honeycomb Skyway, where the ground is formed by floating metallic hexagons that automatically attach to each other, which is made even more high-tech with Tron Lines-like hexagonal sparkles. |

DoDonPachi Daifukkatsu uses these both as high-tech and as part of the bee motif of the series. They're all over the ship select screen, and each cutscene starts with a bunch of hexagons flying onto the screen and attaching to each other to form a screen. The "Expert Items" in the Xbox 360 port's Arrange B mode are also hexagonal and appear in sets of six arranged in a hexagon. DoDonPachi Saidaioujou puts hexagons everywhere — the golden star medals dropped by defeated enemies are now 6-pointed stars on a hexagonal background, the level results screen has hexagons everywhere, the bee items now appear on hexagonal stands, the Type-B helicopter now has 6 propeller blades connected in the middle by a hexagon, and the list goes on. |

Aside from being centered on bees, Bee Movie makes a point of showing hexagons as not just a construction artifact, but ostensibly as a high-technology business organization (Honex, the primary employer of the protagonists' hive, is a member of "The Hexagon Group"), owing to the lengths the bees go through to refine their honey. | |

Deep Rock Galactic lampshades this trope with its description of the Hex Helmet accessory available to all classes: "In the future, everything will be hexes." For the most part, however, the game has a grungier, industrial aesthetic, though the Gunner's MK5 suit has armor plating that is both smoother and more rounded than other variants, and comes with a hex pattern of its own. It is indeed the most "advanced" of the armor options, though it offers just as much protection as the MK1 suit. | |

In Deus Ex: Human Revolution Adam Jensen has a hexagon imbedded in his forehead with a little logo in it. Not even just Adam, but anyone with a neural implant has a subtle or obvious hexagon indentation in their heads. While the game's art makes a lot of use of triangles, hexagons do come in close second, being seen on armor and briefly before Adam cloaks himself to become invisible. Not only that, but if you squint at his combat vest, it is made up of miniscule hexagons. Some of the bulletproof glass has hexagons and one building is called The Hive. Also, in the lobby outside his office Sarif has a large picture of a topless women from the back with cybernetic arms. Up close, the entire thing is covered in a film of hexagons, giving it a softer look from across the room. When inspected even closer, it becomes apparent that the hexagon grid is digital and scrolls across the image. |

Legends of Tomorrow features a good bit of hexagonal design, including a detention cell aboard the Waverider consisting of hexagon-celled energy walls. | |

Hiveswap: Hexagons are the primary detail of anything pertaining to Alternia. The interface details (when they aren't captchalogue cards), the Rebelgram background, the background for Troll Call entries and even compact disks are all hexagons. Interestingly, Alternia appears to use advanced bio-technology. | |

In Rimworld: Ideology, the Techist style makes use of a lot of hexagons. Things like dining tables are redone in a hexagonal shape, for instance, and its special floor tiles and ritual effects are all hexagonal. While randomly-generated Ideoligions only use this if they are transhumanist, and thus very advanced, the style can be used with tribal-level cultures. | |

Chicken Little in Disney's adaptation is hit in the head by a high-tech hexagon that automatically adjusts to its surroundings to make itself invisible. The hexagon turns out to be a panel from the hull of an invisible alien spaceship. | |

The game show Blockbusters had a hexagon-filled gameboard, and naturally hexagon motifs were all over the place. This trope has mostly been emphasized by the British versions, mostly notably the mid-1980s "cityscape" intro, featuring hexagon-shaped futuristic buildings in a scifi-ish city, and the logo of this era was done in a font meant to resemble digital readouts. The gameboard in the studio was described as "quite a feat of engineering" for the time, with the images provided by a large number of slide projectors, each with its own set of slides for the letters and colours. |

The Author's bunker, featured in the Gravity Falls episode "Into the Bunker", has a security room full of these. If you step on the wrong one, the walls will start to close in, and the only way to open the doors to the next room is push four of the right ones. | |

Super Smash Bros.: Super Smash Bros. Melee: From this game onward, both Fox and Falco from the Star Fox series possess a Reflector move whose animation is a blue hexagon. The developer's intent for the move was to reflect projectiles; however, it's used as a direct attack in the current metagame. Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Lucas, who debuted in this game, has a mild hexagonal attack motif. Many of his PSI-related attacks are represented with hexagons, and PSI is usually treated more as science than magic. |
