Oasis: The Infinite Grid Block Puzzle Stop scrolling. Start flowing. Most puzzle games are designed to stress you out with ticking clocks, random dead-ends, and flashing energy bars. Oasis is different. It is a digital sanctuary built for your flow state. Dive into a minimalist 10x10 experience that prioritizes cognitive ease and pure tactile satisfaction. With our custom Predictive Satisfaction engine, every new set of pieces is checked against your board, so at least one always has a place to land. The Dawn backdrop shifts with the time of day, so no two games look quite alike. FEEL THE FLOW Magnetic Tactility: Pieces snap into place with high-fidelity haptics and the organic "thud" of polished wood. The Constellation Effect: Cleared lines don't just vanish; they coalesce into shimmering stars that map your journey to calm. Infinite Undo: Made a mistake? Swipe left-to-right to rewind: no penalties, no limits within a game, zero friction. Zen-Lock UI: The moment you touch a piece, the interface fades away. Your high score is kept, but stays out of sight while you play. No distractions, just you and the grid. Charged Pieces: Now and then a piece arrives charged. Place it, and it clears every block touching it, corners included. Turn and Restart: Tap a piece to rotate it. Restart whenever you like, with a gentle confirmation so a stray tap never costs you a game. MILESTONES OF CALM Replace stressful "levels" with an endless journey. The free version includes your first 25 Milestones, set against a gorgeous, evolving "Dawn" glassmorphism aesthetic. THE ANTI-FRICTION PROMISE We respect your attention. Oasis contains zero ads, no consumable coins, and no aggressive banners. CALM FOR EVERYONE VoiceOver reads the buttons, each piece, and the board, and lets you rotate pieces and undo a move. With Reduce Motion on, the backdrop holds still and the bigger effects soften into simple fades. OASIS PREMIUM For those who wish to journey further, a single one-time purchase. No subscription: Infinite Play: Access to Milestone 26 and beyond for an endless experience. The 'Paper Dark' Theme: A premium night mode featuring charcoal paper textures, embossed blocks, and muted gold ink. The 'Bamboo Ink' Theme: The paper textures and embossed blocks of Paper Dark, in muted greens. Enhanced Shockwave Effects: A richer burst when a charged piece clears the board around it. Support Independent Art: Help us keep Oasis pure and ad-free. Escape the noise. Find your Oasis. --- Privacy Policy: https://romankruglov.me/oasis-privacy Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Oasis at none against Hex 1010's shown. Oasis also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Hex 1010's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 3) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.6). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hex 1010 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Oasis sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Oasis holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hex 1010 has 17 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
Hex 1010 ships an update every 10 months, Oasis every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
