Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hex+Gone at none against Swarm Game's 12. Hex+Gone also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Swarm Game's advantage is ratings volume (41 vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
