# Rogue Captain vs Birds Camp

The clearest difference is ads: Rogue Captain at none against Birds Camp's shown. Rogue Captain also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). Birds Camp's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (230 vs 16). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Rogue Captain sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Birds Camp sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Birds Camp holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Birds Camp has 230 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Rogue Captain's written reviews are positive against 68% of Birds Camp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Rogue Captain ships an update every 5 days, Birds Camp every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
