Both are free to download. Spiral Roll sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Hook Race! asks for nothing beyond the download.
Spiral Roll holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spiral Roll has 282K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Spiral Roll's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hook Race!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Spiral Roll ships an update every 3 months, Hook Race! every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
