Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Hex Warriors at 3.7 against Quantum X Planet Defense's 3.0. Hex Warriors also leads on ratings volume (4.5K vs 10) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Quantum X Planet Defense's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 24) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hex Warriors sells 24 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Quantum X Planet Defense asks for nothing beyond the download.
Hex Warriors holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hex Warriors has 4.5K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Quantum X Planet Defense's written reviews are positive against 8% of Hex Warriors's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Quantum X Planet Defense ships an update every 2 months, Hex Warriors fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
