Verdict

The call

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Battlevoid holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Battlevoid has 178 ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of Battlevoid's written reviews are positive against 87% of Spaceship Builder's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Battlevoid ships an update every 2 weeks, Spaceship Builder every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 1, 2026.
