ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Digit Shooter! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Digit Shooter! has 17K ratings behind it against 72, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Heroes Run's written reviews are positive against 25% of Digit Shooter!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Heroes Run ships an update every 3 weeks, Digit Shooter! weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
