Both are free to download. Draw the Rope sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Blobsbuster asks for nothing beyond the download.
Blobsbuster holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blobsbuster has 7.6K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Draw the Rope's written reviews are positive against 16% of Blobsbuster's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Draw the Rope ships an update every 9 days, Blobsbuster weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
