Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Tower vs Goblins at 4.4 against Hexa TD's 3.4. Tower vs Goblins also leads on ratings volume (408 vs 7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Hexa TD's advantage is review sentiment (36% vs 14%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Tower vs Goblins holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tower vs Goblins has 408 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Tower vs Goblins's written reviews are positive against 36% of Hexa TD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tower vs Goblins ships an update every 2 months, Hexa TD every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
