# Farm Story™ vs Stickman Raid

The clearest difference is rating: Stickman Raid at 4.5 against Farm Story™'s 4.0. Farm Story™'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 30 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Farm Story™ sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Stickman Raid sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Stickman Raid holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Farm Story™ has 4.8K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Farm Story™'s written reviews are positive against 80% of Stickman Raid's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Farm Story™ ships an update every 2 months, Stickman Raid every 30 months. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
