# My Bowling 3D vs Bowling 3D

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bowling 3D at none against My Bowling 3D's 4. Bowling 3D also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). My Bowling 3D's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (6.5K vs 676). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. My Bowling 3D sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Bowling 3D asks for nothing beyond the download.

My Bowling 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Bowling 3D has 6.5K ratings behind it against 676, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of My Bowling 3D's written reviews are positive against 70% of Bowling 3D's.

My Bowling 3D ships an update every 3 months, Bowling 3D every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
