# Samurai Flash vs Mr. Portal

The clearest difference is rating: Samurai Flash at 4.7 against Mr. Portal's 4.1. Samurai Flash also leads on ratings volume (29K vs 10). Mr. Portal's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and review sentiment (100% vs 73%). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Samurai Flash sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Mr. Portal asks for nothing beyond the download.

Samurai Flash holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Samurai Flash has 29K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Samurai Flash's written reviews are positive against 100% of Mr. Portal's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Samurai Flash ships an update every 3 weeks, Mr. Portal weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
