ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Rocky Castle holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rocky Castle has 84 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Flickoids (Full Version)'s written reviews are positive against 73% of Rocky Castle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Flickoids (Full Version) ships an update every 12 months, Rocky Castle every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on August 18, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
