# Worm.is vs Idle Snake World

The clearest difference is ads: Worm.is at none against Idle Snake World's shown. Worm.is also leads on review sentiment (81% vs 61%). Idle Snake World's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 235). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Worm.is sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Idle Snake World sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Idle Snake World holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Idle Snake World has 1.2K ratings behind it against 235, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of Worm.is's written reviews are positive against 61% of Idle Snake World's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Worm.is ships an update every 3 weeks, Idle Snake World monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
