Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mars at 91% against Funky Restaurant's 44%. Mars also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (22K vs 967). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Mars sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Funky Restaurant sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Mars holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mars has 22K ratings behind it against 967, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 91% of Mars's written reviews are positive against 44% of Funky Restaurant's.
Mars ships an update monthly, Funky Restaurant every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
