# caVVVVe vs Hexoboy

The clearest difference is rating: Hexoboy at 4.7 against caVVVVe's 3.5. Hexoboy also leads on review sentiment (91% vs 57%) and ratings volume (47 vs 2). caVVVVe's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. caVVVVe sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Hexoboy sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Hexoboy holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hexoboy has 47 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 57% of caVVVVe's written reviews are positive against 91% of Hexoboy's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
