Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Doodle Bowling at 4.3 against Swipe Bomb's 3.5. Doodle Bowling also leads on ratings volume (331 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Swipe Bomb's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (90% vs 64%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Doodle Bowling sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Swipe Bomb sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Doodle Bowling holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Doodle Bowling has 331 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Doodle Bowling's written reviews are positive against 90% of Swipe Bomb's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Doodle Bowling ships an update every 2 months, Swipe Bomb monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
