Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Astral Hunter at 4.3 against Speed West's 3.5. Speed West's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 days) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 12.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Speed West sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Astral Hunter sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Astral Hunter holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 22 and 16 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of Speed West's written reviews are positive against 50% of Astral Hunter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Speed West ships an update every 2 days, Astral Hunter every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and July 6, 2026 respectively.
