# Party.io vs Ragdoll Fighter

Party.io and Ragdoll Fighter both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 73% of Ragdoll Fighter's written reviews are positive against 40% of Party.io's. Ragdoll Fighter also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months). Party.io's advantage is ratings volume (180K vs 33K) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Party.io sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Ragdoll Fighter sells 6 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 — 4.6 for Party.io against 4.7 for Ragdoll Fighter. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Party.io has 180K ratings behind it against 33K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 40% of Party.io's written reviews are positive against 73% of Ragdoll Fighter's.

Party.io ships an update every 2 months, Ragdoll Fighter every 6 days. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
