# Lost Bubble vs Cubes Empire Champions

The clearest difference is ads: Lost Bubble at none against Cubes Empire Champions's shown. Lost Bubble also leads on review sentiment (79% vs 49%) and chart position (#140 vs unranked). Cubes Empire Champions's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (48K vs 2.3K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lost Bubble sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Cubes Empire Champions sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cubes Empire Champions holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cubes Empire Champions has 48K ratings behind it against 2.3K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Lost Bubble's written reviews are positive against 49% of Cubes Empire Champions's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Lost Bubble ships an update every 2 months, Cubes Empire Champions fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
