Tap. Match. Collapse. Think strategically. Hex Collapse is a puzzle game where every tap counts. Clear hexagonal gems by tapping connected same-color groups, but watch your tap budget. Run out and it is game over. The twist: bigger groups score exponentially more. A six-hex cluster is worth 36 points. Six singles? Just 6. Finding the big plays is how you win. FEATURES * 5-Star Rating System -- Earn up to 5 stars per level. One for winning. Five for perfection. * Streak Multipliers -- Chain consecutive cluster clears for up to 5x score multipliers. Singles break your streak. * Special Hexes -- Multipliers double your score. Chameleons transform on contact. Decay hexes tick down to blockers.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hex Collapse at none against SwipeVault's 1. Hex Collapse also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). SwipeVault's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price there is nothing between them.
