# Donut Games vs Donuts Inc.

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Donut Games at 90% against Donuts Inc.'s 47%. Donut Games also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 477). Donuts Inc.'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Donut Games sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Donuts Inc. sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Donuts Inc. holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Donut Games has 11K ratings behind it against 477, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Donut Games's written reviews are positive against 47% of Donuts Inc.'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Donut Games ships an update every 6 weeks, Donuts Inc. every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
