# Growtopia vs Breaworlds

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Breaworlds at none against Growtopia's 10. Breaworlds also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (52% vs 32%). Growtopia's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 10) and chart position (#187 vs unranked). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Growtopia sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Breaworlds asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 3.8 for Growtopia against 3.8 for Breaworlds. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Growtopia has 11K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 32% of Growtopia's written reviews are positive against 52% of Breaworlds's.

Growtopia ships an update fortnightly, Breaworlds monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
