You are in charge of a special wildlife reserve where you have the important task of revitalizing the land and building a vibrant habitat for Terrapets; mysterious creatures who are the embodiment of the environments that they inhabit. Terrapets from the swamplands are sneaky and vitriolic, while those from the woodlands are steadfast and strong. If the environment is harsh and unforgiving then so too are the Terrapets that live there. There was a time when Terrapets were numerous, but not anymore. You have the power within your hands to return the world to what it once was. You can revitalize Hakawa with a range of different terrain types and customize the environment as you see fit. From frozen tundra and volcanic mountains to thick forests and vast oceans, you have many different options for creating an enticing reservation for all the different Terrapets. Terrapets is developed and maintained by CerebralFix, LLC, an international game development studio bringing the cheeky Kiwi spirit from New Zealand into social mobile gaming.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Terrapets at none against Pico Pets Puzzle's shown. Terrapets also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). Pico Pets Puzzle's advantage is review sentiment (65% vs 42%) and ratings volume (120 vs 31). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model 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
Both are free to download. Terrapets sells 18 one-off in-app purchases and Pico Pets Puzzle sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Terrapets holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 31 and 120 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Terrapets's written reviews are positive against 65% of Pico Pets Puzzle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Terrapets ships an update every 2 weeks, Pico Pets Puzzle every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
