Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hamster Run at none against Flying Gorilla's 7. Hamster Run also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Flying Gorilla's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 51 months) and ratings volume (58K vs 13). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Flying Gorilla sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Hamster Run asks for nothing beyond the download.
Flying Gorilla holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flying Gorilla has 58K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Hamster Run's written reviews are positive against 95% of Flying Gorilla's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Hamster Run ships an update every 51 months, Flying Gorilla fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
