Twist the hexagons to make a complete path that includes a pulsing gem. It looks simple, but it's quietly fiendish. The longer the path, the more points you score, but if you take too long, the gem will overload in a ball of fire! Hexterity first entertained players on the App Store way back in 2008, and to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of the App Store's opening, we released this free update. Completely rewritten from scratch, it modernises the classic game for the gorgeous, high-resolution screens of the latest devices. Hexterity: Get Your Hexag On!

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Hexterity at none against Pushy Boxes's shown. Hexterity also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Pushy Boxes's advantage is ratings volume (12 vs 2) and review sentiment (100% vs 92%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hexterity sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Pushy Boxes sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Hexterity holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pushy Boxes has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Hexterity's written reviews are positive against 100% of Pushy Boxes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Hexterity ships an update every 21 months, Pushy Boxes every 29 months. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
