# Clicker Fred vs Magic Brick Wars

The clearest difference is rating: Magic Brick Wars at 4.7 against Clicker Fred's 4.0. Magic Brick Wars also leads on ratings volume (4.8K vs 65). Clicker Fred's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 18.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clicker Fred sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Magic Brick Wars sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Magic Brick Wars holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Magic Brick Wars has 4.8K ratings behind it against 65, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Clicker Fred's written reviews are positive against 56% of Magic Brick Wars's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Clicker Fred ships an update every 9 days, Magic Brick Wars fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
