The call

The clearest difference is rating: Castlevania at 3.9 against Slaps And Beans's 3.5. Castlevania also leads on ratings volume (1.8K vs 11) and chart position (#11 vs #197). Slaps And Beans's advantage is update cadence (every 11 months vs every 29 months) and review sentiment (67% vs 54%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Castlevania holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Castlevania has 1.8K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Castlevania's written reviews are positive against 67% of Slaps And Beans's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Castlevania ships an update every 29 months, Slaps And Beans every 11 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
