# Rocket Sky! vs Gun Clone

The clearest difference is update cadence: Gun Clone at weekly against Rocket Sky!'s every 3 months. Gun Clone also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5). Rocket Sky!'s advantage is ratings volume (108K vs 9.8K). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Rocket Sky! sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $5.49 per 7 days and Gun Clone sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Gun Clone holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rocket Sky! has 108K ratings behind it against 9.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 17% of Rocket Sky!'s written reviews are positive against 21% of Gun Clone's.

Rocket Sky! ships an update every 3 months, Gun Clone weekly. Both last shipped on September 29, 2026.
