Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hex at none against Orixo Hex's 4. Hex also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). Orixo Hex's advantage is ratings volume (406 vs 3). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
