# Frogger Retro Time vs Mr Autofire

The clearest difference is rating: Mr Autofire at 4.8 against Frogger Retro Time's 4.3. Mr Autofire also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and ratings volume (28K vs 794). Frogger Retro Time's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Frogger Retro Time sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Mr Autofire sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Mr Autofire holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mr Autofire has 28K ratings behind it against 794, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Frogger Retro Time's written reviews are positive against 58% of Mr Autofire's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Frogger Retro Time ships an update monthly, Mr Autofire weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
