ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

BANK! Dice Game holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BANK! Dice Game has 202 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Scat Tools's written reviews are positive against 63% of BANK! Dice Game's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Scat Tools ships an update every 8 months, BANK! Dice Game every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
