# Slashrun vs Ninja Games

The clearest difference is ads: Slashrun at none against Ninja Games's shown. Slashrun also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (55% vs 34%). Ninja Games's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 82) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Slashrun sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Ninja Games sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. 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 Slashrun against 4.6 for Ninja Games. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ninja Games has 1.3K ratings behind it against 82, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 55% of Slashrun's written reviews are positive against 34% of Ninja Games's.

Slashrun ships an update every 5 days, Ninja Games every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
