Verdict

The call

Ghost Squad and Light the Sea both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 93% of Ghost Squad's written reviews are positive against 75% of Light the Sea's. Light the Sea's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Light the Sea holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 14 and 12 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Ghost Squad's written reviews are positive against 75% of Light the Sea's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Ghost Squad ships an update every 2 months, Light the Sea every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
