# Monster Tornado vs Bead Tower

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Monster Tornado at 100% against Bead Tower's 11%. Bead Tower's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Monster Tornado sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Bead Tower sells 18 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bead Tower holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bead Tower has 1.4K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Monster Tornado's written reviews are positive against 11% of Bead Tower's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Monster Tornado ships an update every 2 weeks, Bead Tower every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
