Both are free to download. Tropic Smash sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Clone Ball sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Clone Ball holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clone Ball has 21K ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of Tropic Smash's written reviews are positive against 50% of Clone Ball's.
Tropic Smash ships an update fortnightly, Clone Ball every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
