Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Blade Forge 3D at 4.6 against Incubator!'s 4.1. Blade Forge 3D also leads on ratings volume (66K vs 352) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Incubator!'s advantage is review sentiment (38% vs 11%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Blade Forge 3D sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Incubator! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Blade Forge 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blade Forge 3D has 66K ratings behind it against 352, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of Blade Forge 3D's written reviews are positive against 38% of Incubator!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Blade Forge 3D ships an update every 2 weeks, Incubator! every 2 months. Both last shipped on September 25, 2026.
