ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Scribble Rider holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Scribble Rider has 302K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Scribble Rider's written reviews are positive against 67% of Hill Climber 3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Scribble Rider ships an update monthly, Hill Climber 3D every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
