Catchup is a simple game of surprising turnarounds. "Catchup is as elegant as a game can reasonably be, presented in a marvelously user-friendly way.” -Pocket Tactics (5-star review) "If you're even a little bit into strategy games, you need to get some Catchup all over your mobile device." -Touch Arcade (4 & 1/2 star review) Can you have the largest group at the end of the game? Connect your hexes to master this beautiful abstract strategy game. Features: - an interactive tutorial to teach you how to play - a challenging AI opponent whose difficulty changes as you play - online turn-based multiplayer via Game Center - two-player pass-and-play on the same device - beautiful and haunting music by Tori Kamal - minimalist graphics with customizable colors - Game Center Leaderboards & Achievements - simple and easy to learn rules and gameplay - difficult to master strategy Here are all the rules: 1. One player plays all the hexes of one color and the other player plays all the hexes of the other color. The first player begins by claiming 1 empty hex for their color. 2. Starting with the second player, each player must claim 1 or 2 hexes on their turn. 3. If the largest group of hexes at the end of a turn is larger than the largest group of hexes at the beginning of that turn (regardless of color), the next player may claim up to 3 hexes on their turn. (This does not apply after the first player claims a single hex in step 1 above.) 4. The game ends when the board is full. The player with the largest group wins. If the players’ largest groups are the same size, compare their second-largest groups, and so on, until you come to a pair which aren’t the same size. Whoever owns the larger of the two wins. Catchup is an original Board Game designed by Nick Bentley.

TTWar (Hex Grid: Resource Siege) is a 1v1 turn-based strategy game. On a fog-covered hex battlefield, every move is a mind game against your opponent. 【Why You'll Love It】 • Simultaneous turns, mutual reads: You and your rival issue orders in the same turn, then resolve together. Whoever reads the opponent better seizes the edge. • Expand or attack? Capturing resource tiles grows your army, but spreading thin weakens your city defense. Steady or bold—the choice is yours. • City siege: Protect your core fortress while pressuring the enemy line. Advantages build little by little. • Fast-paced, anytime: Matches usually resolve in minutes. Evenly matched games get intense and keep you coming back. 【Three Ways to Play】 • Quick Match: Real-time 1v1 against human players. • Friend Battle: Create a private room and invite a friend. • AI Challenge: Practice tactics from Easy to Hard. 【Easy to Learn, Hard to Master】 Learn the rules in minutes, but formations, baiting, resource control, and timing make every match different. Plan, read, strike—outthink your opponent and win, Commander!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Catchup at none against TTWar's 2. TTWar's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 101 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
