# MECHA vs Octoblast

The clearest difference is update cadence: Octoblast at every 10 days against MECHA's every 2 months. Octoblast also leads on ratings volume (293 vs 31). MECHA's advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 14%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MECHA sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Octoblast sells 22 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for MECHA against 4.6 for Octoblast. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Octoblast has 293 ratings behind it against 31, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 33% of MECHA's written reviews are positive against 14% of Octoblast's.

MECHA ships an update every 2 months, Octoblast every 10 days. Both last shipped on September 8, 2026.
