Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dungeon Attack at none against Hex Defense!'s 10. Dungeon Attack also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). Hex Defense!'s advantage is ratings volume (4.6K vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
