Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Simple Marble Race sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Trap Master sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Trap Master holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Trap Master has 48K ratings behind it against 533, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Simple Marble Race's written reviews are positive against 51% of Trap Master's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Simple Marble Race ships an update every 9 days, Trap Master every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
