Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Bacon Escape 2 sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Mimelet sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Bacon Escape 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bacon Escape 2 has 5.7K ratings behind it against 94, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Bacon Escape 2's written reviews are positive against 79% of Mimelet's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Bacon Escape 2 ships an update every 9 days, Mimelet every 10 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
