Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Play Impossible Gameball at none against Snake Quest's 10. Play Impossible Gameball also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (964 vs 5). Snake Quest's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 72%) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 13.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Play Impossible Gameball holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Play Impossible Gameball has 964 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Snake Quest's written reviews are positive against 72% of Play Impossible Gameball's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Snake Quest ships an update every 9 months, Play Impossible Gameball every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
