Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Gun Clone at 4.7 against CodeGamer's 2.5. Gun Clone also leads on ratings volume (9.8K vs 52). CodeGamer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 13) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Gun Clone holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gun Clone has 9.8K ratings behind it against 52, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of CodeGamer's written reviews are positive against 21% of Gun Clone's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

CodeGamer ships an update every 4 days, Gun Clone weekly. Both last shipped on October 4, 2026.
