# Cube Runner II vs Extreme Road Trip 2

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cube Runner II at none against Extreme Road Trip 2's 10. Cube Runner II also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). Extreme Road Trip 2's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 14 months) and review sentiment (86% vs 61%). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Extreme Road Trip 2 sells 10 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 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Extreme Road Trip 2 has 2.6K ratings behind it against 31, 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 86% of Extreme Road Trip 2'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, Extreme Road Trip 2 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
