Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Funghi's Den at none against Cats the Commander's shown. Funghi's Den also leads on review sentiment (82% vs 63%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Cats the Commander's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Funghi's Den sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Cats the Commander sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cats the Commander holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cats the Commander has 1.5K ratings behind it against 55, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Funghi's Den's written reviews are positive against 63% of Cats the Commander's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Funghi's Den ships an update monthly, Cats the Commander every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
