Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Cross at 4.7 against Bad Wolf! Bubble Shooter's 4.3. Cross also leads on ratings volume (6.4K vs 7). Bad Wolf! Bubble Shooter's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 61%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cross holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cross has 6.4K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Cross's written reviews are positive against 80% of Bad Wolf! Bubble Shooter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Cross ships an update fortnightly, Bad Wolf! Bubble Shooter every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
