Both are free to download. Tiny Racing sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Paradise Runner sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Paradise Runner holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paradise Runner has 21 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Tiny Racing ships an update every 12 months, Paradise Runner every 30 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
