# Gamery vs Spawnr

The clearest difference is rating: Gamery at 4.6 against Spawnr's 4.2. Gamery also leads on ratings volume (206 vs 6) and review sentiment (79% vs 67%). Spawnr's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gamery sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Spawnr sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Gamery holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gamery has 206 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 79% of Gamery's written reviews are positive against 67% of Spawnr's.

Gamery ships an update fortnightly, Spawnr weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
