The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hex Twist at none against Matcholitaire's 10. Hex Twist also leads on ads (none vs shown). Matcholitaire's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 10 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
