Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Hex Defense! at 4.5 against Cut Half's 2.8. Hex Defense! also leads on ratings volume (4.6K vs 12). Cut Half's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hex Defense! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Cut Half asks for nothing beyond the download.
Hex Defense! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hex Defense! has 4.6K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Cut Half's written reviews are positive against 16% of Hex Defense!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Cut Half ships an update every 9 days, Hex Defense! fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
