ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Same Color 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tricky Castle has 6.4K ratings behind it against 1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Tricky Castle's written reviews are positive against 43% of Same Color 3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tricky Castle ships an update every 5 weeks, Same Color 3D every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
