Galactic Merge Idle holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Galactic Merge Idle has 1.9K ratings behind it against 107, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of Ski Jump's written reviews are positive against 8% of Galactic Merge Idle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Ski Jump ships an update monthly, Galactic Merge Idle every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
