Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Star Thunder at 4.6 against Chicken Invaders 3 Easter HD's 3.5. Star Thunder also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 17 months) and ratings volume (67 vs 4). Chicken Invaders 3 Easter HD's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chicken Invaders 3 Easter HD sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Star Thunder sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Star Thunder holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Star Thunder has 67 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Chicken Invaders 3 Easter HD's written reviews are positive against 38% of Star Thunder's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Chicken Invaders 3 Easter HD ships an update every 17 months, Star Thunder fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on June 5, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
