Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Toy Collection at none against iCollect Video Games's 6. Toy Collection also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 55%). iCollect Video Games's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 3). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iCollect Video Games holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iCollect Video Games has 1.8K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of iCollect Video Games's written reviews are positive against 67% of Toy Collection's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iCollect Video Games ships an update every 5 weeks, Toy Collection every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
