ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Boxville Riddles holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Boxville Riddles has 47 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of McPixel Lite's written reviews are positive against 71% of Boxville Riddles's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

McPixel Lite ships an update every 27 months, Boxville Riddles every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
