Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Snake Blast! at 4.6 against Snake's 4.1. Snake Blast! also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). Snake's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Snake Blast! sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Snake asks for nothing beyond the download.
Snake Blast! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Snake Blast! has 3.5K ratings behind it against 121, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Snake's written reviews are positive against 64% of Snake Blast!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Snake ships an update every 2 months, Snake Blast! every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
