Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Monster Math 2 at Free against Mathopolis's $1.99. Monster Math 2 also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (6.5K vs 79). Mathopolis's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and review sentiment (91% vs 63%). On rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Monster Math 2 is free to download; Mathopolis costs $1.99 up front. Monster Math 2 sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $59.99 per year. Mathopolis asks for nothing beyond the download.
Monster Math 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Monster Math 2 has 6.5K ratings behind it against 79, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of Mathopolis's written reviews are positive against 63% of Monster Math 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Mathopolis ships an update every 5 months, Monster Math 2 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
