In this awesome new game by Ovivo you need to get ALL of the balloons in the cup without losing any of them along the way! To succeed you must take out the pins in the right order, if you won’t you might lose the balloons to a balloon bomb or a spiked ball! But Be careful, unlike the balloons the spiked balls go down and not up! One more thing you need to remember, ALL balloons must be colorful when they get to the cup, if they will reach greyed out, you’ll lose. The way you turn a grey balloon into a colorful one is by touching a grey balloon with a colored one. Along the way you could unlock AWESOME balloons and pins. Can you reach level 100? Enjoy!

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Pull the Pin at free against Pin Pulls's free with in-app purchases. Pull the Pin also leads on review sentiment (55% vs 37%). Pin Pulls's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (313 vs 40). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Pin Pulls sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Pull the Pin sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Pin Pulls holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pin Pulls has 313 ratings behind it against 40, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 37% of Pin Pulls's written reviews are positive against 55% of Pull the Pin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pin Pulls ships an update every 4 weeks, Pull the Pin every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
