ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

DODONPACHI MAXIMUM holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DODONPACHI MAXIMUM has 53 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of DODONPACHI MAXIMUM's written reviews are positive against 100% of Revershooter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

DODONPACHI MAXIMUM ships an update every 2 months, Revershooter every 22 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and July 7, 2026 respectively.
