Build a bridge together, press Go and watch your critters cross — or tumble into the clouds! Mosto is a cooperative physics puzzle for 2–4 friends, each on their own iPhone or iPad. Everyone builds at the same time, in their own zone, with their own crate of parts. The catch: the rope you need is in your friend's crate. Pass pieces, ping spots, react with emoji, and when everyone is ready — launch! • Real truss physics: decks, beams, ropes and balloons that bend, strain and snap • Fail is fun: bridges break spectacularly, critters float away under umbrellas, and a retry is one tap away • 12 free handcrafted levels in the Canyon world, three stars each • Endless waves: heavier critters every wave, worn-out pieces to replace, three lives — beat your record • Bet on every run and race the clock in timed builds • River world with floating rafts and water physics — 12 more levels with Mosto Plus • The Pass: wind, gusts, steel beams and weights — 12 more levels with Mosto Plus • Architect mode: one player sees the plan, the others build it • A daily challenge with a Game Center leaderboard • Critter hats and bridge themes, synced for everyone in the room • Join with a 4-letter code or an invite link — no accounts, no chat • Play solo too: control the whole crew yourself or team up with a bot • Learn by gesture: the first levels show you what to do without walls of text

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Mosto at weekly against Pocket Tanks's every 4 months. Pocket Tanks's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
