Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Adley's PlaySpace at none against Squishy Magic's 9. Adley's PlaySpace also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). Squishy Magic's advantage is ratings volume (331K vs 1.5K) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Squishy Magic holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Squishy Magic has 331K ratings behind it against 1.5K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Squishy Magic's written reviews are positive against 87% of Adley's PlaySpace's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Squishy Magic ships an update every 5 weeks, Adley's PlaySpace fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
