Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: FallDown! 2 at 4.5 against Cube Runner's 3.9. FallDown! 2 also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (3.1K vs 494). Cube Runner's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (80% vs 66%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

FallDown! 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FallDown! 2 has 3.1K ratings behind it against 494, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Cube Runner's written reviews are positive against 66% of FallDown! 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Cube Runner ships an update every 5 months, FallDown! 2 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
