# SpacePig vs Rocket Sky!

The clearest difference is rating: Rocket Sky! at 4.5 against SpacePig's 3.0. Rocket Sky! also leads on ratings volume (108K vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 12 months). SpacePig's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SpacePig sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Rocket Sky! sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $5.49 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Rocket Sky! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rocket Sky! has 108K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of SpacePig's written reviews are positive against 17% of Rocket Sky!'s.

SpacePig ships an update every 12 months, Rocket Sky! every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on July 20, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
