ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Tiny Tanks holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tiny Tanks has 323 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Tiny Tanks's written reviews are positive against 80% of OverclockeTD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tiny Tanks ships an update every 6 weeks, OverclockeTD every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
