ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Claw Builder holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Claw Builder has 7.8K ratings behind it against 79, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Claw Builder's written reviews are positive against 67% of Mutant Escape !'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Claw Builder ships an update every 4 weeks, Mutant Escape ! every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and July 5, 2026 respectively.
