# Evolution Galaxy vs SwatzZapz

The clearest difference is review sentiment: SwatzZapz at 100% against Evolution Galaxy's 66%. SwatzZapz also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Evolution Galaxy's advantage is ratings volume (16K vs 8). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Evolution Galaxy sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and SwatzZapz sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SwatzZapz holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Evolution Galaxy has 16K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 66% of Evolution Galaxy's written reviews are positive against 100% of SwatzZapz's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and June 4, 2026 respectively.
