# Spiraloid vs Electric Race

The clearest difference is rating: Electric Race at 5.0 against Spiraloid's 4.4. Spiraloid's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 20 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spiraloid sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Electric Race sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Electric Race holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spiraloid has 36 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Spiraloid ships an update fortnightly, Electric Race every 20 months. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
