Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 小黑盒 at 76% against Steam Mobile's 24%. 小黑盒 also leads on rating (4.5 vs 2.7) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). Steam Mobile's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 1.4K) and chart position (#42 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

小黑盒 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.7.

Written reviews point the same way: 24% of Steam Mobile's written reviews are positive against 76% of 小黑盒's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Steam Mobile ships an update every 6 weeks, 小黑盒 fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
