Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Bubble Rush at 100% against Simon's Cat's 62%. Bubble Rush also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 weeks) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Simon's Cat's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (31K vs 25). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Simon's Cat sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Bubble Rush sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Simon's Cat holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simon's Cat has 31K ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Simon's Cat's written reviews are positive against 100% of Bubble Rush's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Simon's Cat ships an update every 4 weeks, Bubble Rush every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
