Keep the board blooming in Hexbee, a colorful take on the classic lines puzzle. Move flowers across a hexagonal board and line up five or more of the same kind to clear space and build your score. Easy to learn, with plenty of room to plan your next move. Choose from three difficulty levels, use wildcard stars to complete a line, and keep clearing flowers before the board fills up. FEATURES • Three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium and Hard • Game Center leaderboards for each difficulty • Customizable theme colors • Music and sound effects with separate volume controls • Play on iPhone and iPad • Play the puzzle offline; Game Center and purchases require a connection • Free to play, with no ads • Seven additional themes available together through one optional in-app purchase HOW TO PLAY Tap a flower, then tap an empty space to move it there. A clear path must connect the two spaces. Make a line of at least five matching flowers in any of the three directions to clear it. A star is a wildcard and can complete a line with any flower type. If your move doesn't clear a line, three new pieces appear. Watch the upcoming pieces, leave room to move, and aim for your next high score. The game ends when the board is full.

Both are free to download. Hexbee sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Draw for iPad asks for nothing beyond the download.
Hexbee holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Draw for iPad has 2.1K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Draw for iPad's written reviews are positive against 69% of Hexbee's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Draw for iPad ships an update monthly, Hexbee every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
