# Bit Survivor vs HexRain

The clearest difference is ads: HexRain at none against Bit Survivor's shown. HexRain also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Bit Survivor's advantage is ratings volume (107 vs 5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bit Survivor sells 17 one-off in-app purchases and HexRain sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

HexRain holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bit Survivor has 107 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Bit Survivor ships an update weekly, HexRain every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
