Zen Mode No time limit. No game over. Just you and the hex grid. When tiles fill the board, it expands so you can keep playing. Turn off the score counter for pure flow, or leave it on to chase your personal best. Your progress auto-saves whenever you step away. Challenge Mode Water rises from below every few moves, swallowing tiles in its path. Merge tiles into 128 or higher to push the water back. Choose your pace with three difficulty levels: Gentle, Flow, and Torrent. How long can you stay ahead of the tide? FOCUS TIMER A built-in Pomodoro timer turns Numvana into a productivity companion.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Astrebo at none against Numvana's 5. Astrebo also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Numvana's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
