The clearest difference is rating: Gun Fun at 5.0 against The Lost Shield's 4.4. Gun Fun also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and price ($0.99 vs $1.99). The Lost Shield's advantage is ratings volume (29 vs 1) and update cadence (every 7 months vs every 22 months). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Gun Fun costs $0.99 and The Lost Shield $1.99 up front. The Lost Shield sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Gun Fun asks for nothing beyond the download.

Gun Fun holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Lost Shield has 29 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Gun Fun's written reviews are positive against 65% of The Lost Shield's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Gun Fun ships an update every 22 months, The Lost Shield every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
