ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Bubble Pop Star holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bubble Pop Star has 16K ratings behind it against 33, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of Crystal Caverns!'s written reviews are positive against 67% of Bubble Pop Star's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Crystal Caverns! ships an update every 36 months, Bubble Pop Star every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on September 23, 2026.
