# Noogra Nuts vs Cut the Rope

The clearest difference is rating: Cut the Rope at 4.8 against Noogra Nuts's 4.1. Cut the Rope also leads on ratings volume (13K vs 75). Noogra Nuts's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.3 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Noogra Nuts sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Cut the Rope sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cut the Rope holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cut the Rope has 13K ratings behind it against 75, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Noogra Nuts's written reviews are positive against 59% of Cut the Rope's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Noogra Nuts ships an update every 6 weeks, Cut the Rope every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
