# Hitmasters vs Mr Ninja

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mr Ninja at none against Hitmasters's 10. Mr Ninja also leads on review sentiment (93% vs 65%). Hitmasters's advantage is ratings volume (158K vs 16K) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hitmasters sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Mr Ninja asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Hitmasters against 4.7 for Mr Ninja. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hitmasters has 158K ratings behind it against 16K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 65% of Hitmasters's written reviews are positive against 93% of Mr Ninja's.

Hitmasters ships an update monthly, Mr Ninja every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
