# Prize Claw vs Balls go High

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Prize Claw at 73% against Balls go High's 32%. Prize Claw also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Balls go High's advantage is ratings volume (33K vs 1.9K) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Prize Claw sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Balls go High sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Balls go High holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Balls go High has 33K ratings behind it against 1.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Prize Claw's written reviews are positive against 32% of Balls go High's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Prize Claw ships an update monthly, Balls go High every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 19, 2026.
