# MouseBot vs Rats N' Lasers

The clearest difference is rating: Rats N' Lasers at 5.0 against MouseBot's 4.3. Rats N' Lasers also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 4 months). MouseBot's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 8). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MouseBot sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Rats N' Lasers sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Rats N' Lasers holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MouseBot has 1.1K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 85% of MouseBot's written reviews are positive against 100% of Rats N' Lasers's.

MouseBot ships an update every 4 months, Rats N' Lasers every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
