Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: World War II at none against Hexapolis's shown. World War II also leads on review sentiment (53% vs 34%) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). Hexapolis's advantage is ratings volume (2K vs 15). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. World War II sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Hexapolis sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Hexapolis holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hexapolis has 2K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of World War II's written reviews are positive against 34% of Hexapolis's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
World War II ships an update every 8 days, Hexapolis every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
