Flip Skater holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flip Skater has 65K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Flip Skater's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hook Race!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Flip Skater ships an update every 3 months, Hook Race! every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
