Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Hexic 2048 at none against 2048 Bricks's shown. Hexic 2048 also leads on review sentiment (59% vs 44%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). 2048 Bricks's advantage is ratings volume (5.8K vs 71) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hexic 2048 sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and 2048 Bricks sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
2048 Bricks holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 2048 Bricks has 5.8K ratings behind it against 71, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Hexic 2048's written reviews are positive against 44% of 2048 Bricks's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Hexic 2048 ships an update every 5 weeks, 2048 Bricks every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
