# Smash Dude vs Blodey

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Blodey at none against Smash Dude's 8. Blodey also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Smash Dude's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (11K vs 54). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Smash Dude sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Blodey asks for nothing beyond the download.

Smash Dude holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smash Dude has 11K ratings behind it against 54, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Smash Dude's written reviews are positive against 82% of Blodey's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Smash Dude ships an update every 5 weeks, Blodey every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
