Pitzy isn't just tapping. It's the story of Grandpa Shimon's nut shop, closed for 12 years - coming back to life, one seed at a time. THE STORY Grandpa Shimon finds the old jar from his shop in the attic, with a single seed left inside. Pitzy, the seed with a face, wakes up - and it's on you to fill the jar, relight the "Shimon's Nut Shop" sign, and stand up to Mr. Mega and his shiny "MegaCrack" chain that wants to buy it all out. 8 chapters, from the living room to the stadium. HOW TO PLAY • Every tap cracks a seed. Rapid taps build a combo that multiplies your output • Golden seeds pop up on screen now and then - catch them before they vanish, sometimes for a "Cracking Frenzy" (×7 for a minute!) • 12 neighborhood friends crack seeds for you even when you're not tapping, from Grandma Rachel to the seed train • Friday is cleanup day: every cleanup turns your progress into golden seeds, permanently, so you push faster every run MORE INSIDE • A shell collection, virtual gear and dozens of costumes for Pitzy • 10 cracking ranks, each with its own reward • Events on the Hebrew calendar - Hanukkah, Tu BiShvat, Purim, Passover, Independence Day and more • Global leaderboards (Game Center), with a friends filter THE NUT SHOP CLUB (SUBSCRIPTION) Want to grow the shop faster? Join the club for a permanent 2x on every seed, 20 pistachios a day, and a rotating cosmetic extra. Monthly and yearly plans are available; the price for your country is shown in the app before you buy. The subscription auto-renews until cancelled in your Apple ID settings (App Store → your name → Subscriptions) at least 24 hours before renewal. You can play and progress fully without it, with an occasional ad. The download is completely free, no sign-up and no account - your progress stays with you.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Pitzy at Free against Pocket Build's $0.99. Pitzy also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). Pocket Build's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#40 vs unranked). On in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
