# Flat Cubik vs Cube Master

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Flat Cubik at 100% against Cube Master's 49%. Flat Cubik also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). Cube Master's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 3.0) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 5 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cube Master sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Flat Cubik asks for nothing beyond the download.

Cube Master holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cube Master has 435 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Flat Cubik's written reviews are positive against 49% of Cube Master's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Flat Cubik ships an update every 5 months, Cube Master every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
