ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Shooting The Pixel holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cubic Sandbox has 793 ratings behind it against 33, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Cubic Sandbox's written reviews are positive against 20% of Shooting The Pixel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Cubic Sandbox ships an update every 45 months, Shooting The Pixel every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
