Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: NA3 at 5.0 against ECHL's 2.6. NA3 also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). ECHL's advantage is ratings volume (87 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

NA3 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ECHL has 87 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ECHL ships an update every 4 months, NA3 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and July 23, 2026 respectively.
