Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Super Pixelander at Free against Kosmo Spin's $2.99. Super Pixelander also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months) and review sentiment (90% vs 79%). Kosmo Spin's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Kosmo Spin holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Super Pixelander has 65 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Kosmo Spin's written reviews are positive against 90% of Super Pixelander's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Kosmo Spin ships an update every 4 months, Super Pixelander every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and August 14, 2026 respectively.
