ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Bricks Crush Monster holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Costume Quest has 449 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Costume Quest's written reviews are positive against 50% of Bricks Crush Monster's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Costume Quest ships an update every 6 days, Bricks Crush Monster monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
