Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Snake Evolution at 4.8 against Squid Simulator's 3.8. Snake Evolution also leads on ratings volume (361 vs 13) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 2 months). Squid Simulator's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 15) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Snake Evolution holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Snake Evolution has 361 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Squid Simulator's written reviews are positive against 71% of Snake Evolution's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Squid Simulator ships an update every 2 months, Snake Evolution every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 7, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
