# Pile vs HexaBlast Puzzle

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pile at 100% against HexaBlast Puzzle's 63%. Pile also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). HexaBlast Puzzle's advantage is ratings volume (6.4K vs 7) and rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HexaBlast Puzzle sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Pile asks for nothing beyond the download.

HexaBlast Puzzle holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HexaBlast Puzzle has 6.4K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Pile's written reviews are positive against 63% of HexaBlast Puzzle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
