# [PROJECT vs Tricky Machines

The clearest difference is update cadence: Tricky Machines at every 4 days against [PROJECT's every 5 weeks. [PROJECT's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 106) and iOS requirement (10.1 vs 16.6). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. [PROJECT sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Tricky Machines sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for [PROJECT against 4.5 for Tricky Machines. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: [PROJECT has 1.1K ratings behind it against 106, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 85% of [PROJECT's written reviews are positive against 83% of Tricky Machines's.

[PROJECT ships an update every 5 weeks, Tricky Machines every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
