# World Soccer Challenge vs Kickfall

The clearest difference is rating: Kickfall at 5.0 against World Soccer Challenge's 4.3. World Soccer Challenge's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (133 vs 9). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. World Soccer Challenge sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Kickfall sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Kickfall holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: World Soccer Challenge has 133 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of World Soccer Challenge's written reviews are positive against 70% of Kickfall's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

World Soccer Challenge ships an update every 2 weeks, Kickfall every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
