Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Mad Merx at Free against Elite Chopper's $0.49. Mad Merx also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.3) and ratings volume (312 vs 3). Elite Chopper's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (75% vs 60%). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mad Merx holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mad Merx has 312 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Elite Chopper's written reviews are positive against 60% of Mad Merx's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Elite Chopper ships an update every 2 months, Mad Merx every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
