ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Tricky Traps holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tricky Traps has 616 ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 96% of Siege Hero HD's written reviews are positive against 43% of Tricky Traps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
