Helmet: CHECK! Jumpsuit: CHECK! Parachute...ummm WOOPS! Find hidden objects, complete missions, by slamming into them at ridiculous speeds! This ain't no wussy stuntman's gig. It's the "Where's Waldo" of extreme sports. Strap on your gear and take an adrenaline-pumped sky dive. Zoom toward the ground at 125 mph, using your eagle eyes to hunt for targets scattered across the map. Zero in, then SLAM into your target to win coins and unlock new maps. Unless you miss...SPLAT!!! Smash all the targets: * Ice cream trucks * Park benches * Fire hydrants * Tree branches Go for a mega bonus, and crush the ever-elusive Gnome (one on every map)! Feel the need for that extra rush? Grab some adrenaline boosts: dive even faster and smash even harder. Reminiscent of the crazy stuntmen of yesteryear, Death Drop is the most extreme scavenger hunt you'll ever play!

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Death Drop at 3.9 against 15 Puzzle's 3.3. Death Drop also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 128 months). 15 Puzzle's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Death Drop sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. 15 Puzzle asks for nothing beyond the download.
Death Drop holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 15 Puzzle has 4.8K ratings behind it against 53, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of 15 Puzzle's written reviews are positive against 57% of Death Drop's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
15 Puzzle ships an update every 128 months, Death Drop every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
