Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Wordism at Free against Hexiled's $3.99. Wordism also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Hexiled's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (416 vs 3). On ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
