# Grow Swordmaster vs Tap Knight

Grow Swordmaster and Tap Knight both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 77% of Grow Swordmaster's written reviews are positive against 50% of Tap Knight's. Grow Swordmaster also leads on ratings volume (37 vs 12) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Grow Swordmaster sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Tap Knight sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tap Knight holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 37 and 12 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Grow Swordmaster's written reviews are positive against 50% of Tap Knight's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Grow Swordmaster ships an update every 3 weeks, Tap Knight every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
