# Draw a Stickman vs Game Jolt

The clearest difference is price: Game Jolt at Free against Draw a Stickman's $1.99. Game Jolt also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 3 months) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Draw a Stickman's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (89% vs 77%). On in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Game Jolt is free to download; Draw a Stickman costs $1.99 up front. Draw a Stickman sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Game Jolt sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Game Jolt holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Game Jolt has 3.1K ratings behind it against 257, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Draw a Stickman's written reviews are positive against 77% of Game Jolt's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Draw a Stickman ships an update every 3 months, Game Jolt every 11 days. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
