*** The new version is featured in What's Hot for United Kingdom and more 30 places over the world! Stunning strategic game that challenges you to dominate over the imaginary universe that is presented by the hexagon field. Master your skills from beginner to professional and further to expert, choosing different tactics for each level. The more you play the more strategies you learn, the more interesting the gameplay is. You can move your crystal to cell near it, and new crystal will be born. Or you can make a jump over one cell leaving empty place. When you place your crystal next to opponent’s it will transform them into your own and you can use them to make your next moves. You win if by the end of the game you have more crystals than your opponent. You can play against the computer or against your mate. Graphics are elaborated, featuring different effects. And sound will intensify your impression of this breathtaking game. You could check my twitter for new apps: https://twitter.com/avolovik Watch gameplay on YouTube!

Proelium
Read full descriptionHide full description
The most minimalist strategy game (with the permission of go). Proelium is a turn-based tactical game inspired by classic board games like checkers, go, and mainly the almost forgotten latrones, played in the Roman Empire. A minimalist gameplay system with very few rules to memorize, yet it offers depth and room to develop your own play style. Arrange your pieces, block your opponent’s pieces, and eliminate them to claim victory. Challenge a friend on the same device (the iPad version is optimal for this mode, but it’s also avalaible on iPhone), play against a friend or stranger over the Internet, or try to defeat the AI at three different difficulty levels. In Proelium, there’s only one type of piece, and it can perform only two actions: move and attack. The key is to position your pieces to flank the enemy from at least two sides, blocking them (while avoiding the same fate). Only blocked pieces can be attacked and removed. The interplay of blocks and counterblocks makes Proelium a game of emergent complexity ―easy to learn, but challenging to master. The rules of Proelium symbolize, in an abstact way, the combat between phalanxes in ancient Greece. The result is a dynamic reminiscent of hoplite warfare ―fundamentally positional and defensive.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Proelium at every 2 months against Hexxagon's every 8 months. Proelium also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
