Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Faily Skater at 4.8 against Falling Guy ™'s 3.1. Faily Skater also leads on ratings volume (4.6K vs 17) and update cadence (monthly vs every 5 months). Falling Guy ™'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Faily Skater holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Faily Skater has 4.6K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Faily Skater's written reviews are positive against 80% of Falling Guy ™'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Faily Skater ships an update monthly, Falling Guy ™ every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
