Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StarLinker at none against Hexapolis's 10. StarLinker also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). Hexapolis's advantage is ratings volume (2K vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
