# Tangled vs Twisted Rope 3d

The clearest difference is rating: Twisted Rope 3d at 4.6 against Tangled's 3.8. Twisted Rope 3d also leads on ratings volume (8.4K vs 32). Tangled's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 16%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tangled sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Twisted Rope 3d sells 22 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Twisted Rope 3d holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Twisted Rope 3d has 8.4K ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Tangled's written reviews are positive against 16% of Twisted Rope 3d's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Tangled ships an update every 3 weeks, Twisted Rope 3d monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
