# Flippy Knife vs Hunter Assassin

Flippy Knife and Hunter Assassin both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 73% of Flippy Knife's written reviews are positive against 37% of Hunter Assassin's. Hunter Assassin's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (399K vs 36K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Flippy Knife sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Hunter Assassin sells 24 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Flippy Knife against 4.6 for Hunter Assassin. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hunter Assassin has 399K ratings behind it against 36K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 73% of Flippy Knife's written reviews are positive against 37% of Hunter Assassin's.

Flippy Knife ships an update every 5 weeks, Hunter Assassin every 8 days. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
