Both are free to download. Geometry Birds sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Vex sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Geometry Birds holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 57 and 30 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Geometry Birds's written reviews are positive against 88% of Vex's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
