Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Strike the Planets! at none against Avoooid! Hero's 10. Strike the Planets! also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (623 vs 20). Avoooid! Hero's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 10 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Avoooid! Hero sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Strike the Planets! asks for nothing beyond the download.
Strike the Planets! holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Strike the Planets! has 623 ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Avoooid! Hero's written reviews are positive against 79% of Strike the Planets!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Avoooid! Hero ships an update every 2 months, Strike the Planets! every 10 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
