# Cube Runner II vs Mega Run

The clearest difference is rating: Cube Runner II at 4.9 against Mega Run's 3.9. Cube Runner II also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 9) and ads (none vs shown). Mega Run's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 28). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mega Run sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Cube Runner II asks for nothing beyond the download.

Cube Runner II holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mega Run has 1.2K ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Cube Runner II's written reviews are positive against 79% of Mega Run's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Cube Runner II ships an update every 14 months, Mega Run monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
