# Draw a Stickman vs Raptor Evolution

The clearest difference is price: Raptor Evolution at Free against Draw a Stickman's $2.99. Raptor Evolution also leads on ratings volume (15K vs 321) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). Draw a Stickman's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (85% vs 58%). On rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Raptor Evolution is free to download; Draw a Stickman costs $2.99 up front. Draw a Stickman sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Raptor Evolution sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Raptor Evolution holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Raptor Evolution has 15K ratings behind it against 321, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Draw a Stickman's written reviews are positive against 58% of Raptor Evolution'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, Raptor Evolution every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
