# Stack vs Scream Go Hero

The clearest difference is rating: Stack at 4.4 against Scream Go Hero's 3.8. Stack also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and chart position (#112 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stack sells 15 one-off in-app purchases and Scream Go Hero sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Stack holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stack has 59K ratings behind it against 7.1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 53% of Stack's written reviews are positive against 47% of Scream Go Hero's.

Stack ships an update every 10 days, Scream Go Hero every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
