Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Chess Mega Bundle at 4.6 against Hexagonal Chess's 1.0. Chess Mega Bundle also leads on ratings volume (125 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Hexagonal Chess's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chess Mega Bundle sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Hexagonal Chess asks for nothing beyond the download.
Chess Mega Bundle holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chess Mega Bundle has 125 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Chess Mega Bundle's written reviews are positive against 67% of Hexagonal Chess's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Chess Mega Bundle ships an update every 7 months, Hexagonal Chess every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
