Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Turn Left!! at Free against TARAKAN's $3.99. Turn Left!! also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (33K vs 7). TARAKAN's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Turn Left!! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Turn Left!! has 33K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of Turn Left!!'s written reviews are positive against 75% of TARAKAN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Turn Left!! ships an update every 2 months, TARAKAN every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 11, 2026 respectively.
