# Coc Studio vs The Castle

The clearest difference is rating: The Castle at 5.0 against Coc Studio's 3.9. The Castle also leads on ads (none vs shown). Coc Studio's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Coc Studio sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and The Castle sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

The Castle holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Coc Studio has 17 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
