Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Downhill Smash at 4.8 against Clumsy Cat's 4.2. Downhill Smash also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (22K vs 743). Clumsy Cat's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (74% vs 41%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Downhill Smash holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Downhill Smash has 22K ratings behind it against 743, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Clumsy Cat's written reviews are positive against 41% of Downhill Smash's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Clumsy Cat ships an update every 12 months, Downhill Smash every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
