# Gigabull vs The Pinball Wizard

The clearest difference is ads: Gigabull at none against The Pinball Wizard's shown. Gigabull also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 66%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). The Pinball Wizard's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 32) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gigabull sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and The Pinball Wizard sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Gigabull holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Pinball Wizard has 1.1K ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Gigabull's written reviews are positive against 66% of The Pinball Wizard's.

Gigabull ships an update weekly, The Pinball Wizard fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
