Eat food to gain health. Avoid touching goo as it decreses health. Complete the objectives but beware of the shadowfish. LEVELS In each level you have to complete one of four objectives: survive for a specified amount of time; quickly follow a trail of rings; clear checkpoints; eat food with caution to reach a specific amount of health. Every level is different, be it food quantity, goo quantity, speed, size, movement patterns, health lost rate, number and speed of shadowfish. All these combined make each level unique. ARCADE Survive as long as possible. Arcade starts with lots of food and some goo, but over time the food gets more rare and more goo appears. The fish also loses more health as time passes. Then appears the shadowfish. Survive, until the inevitable end...

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Last Fish at none against Air Wings®'s 10. Last Fish also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 70%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). Air Wings®'s advantage is rating (4.3 vs 3.9) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 22). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Air Wings® holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Air Wings® has 1.2K ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Last Fish's written reviews are positive against 70% of Air Wings®'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Last Fish ships an update every 4 months, Air Wings® every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on August 27, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
