Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Barnyard Blaster Lite at 4.8 against Impossible Pixel's 4.3. Impossible Pixel's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 7 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Barnyard Blaster Lite holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Impossible Pixel has 290 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of Barnyard Blaster Lite's written reviews are positive against 66% of Impossible Pixel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Barnyard Blaster Lite ships an update every 7 months, Impossible Pixel every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
