Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Troma NOW! at 97% against Midnight Pulp's 49%. Troma NOW! also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Midnight Pulp's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 141). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Midnight Pulp sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Troma NOW! sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Troma NOW! holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Midnight Pulp has 1.8K ratings behind it against 141, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Midnight Pulp ships an update every 3 months, Troma NOW! every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
