Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Bubble Bust! sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Bubble Mania! sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Bubble Bust! holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bubble Bust! has 1.4K ratings behind it against 88, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Bubble Bust!'s written reviews are positive against 89% of Bubble Mania!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Bubble Bust! ships an update every 4 months, Bubble Mania! every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
