ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Puppet Break holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Puppet Break has 186 ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Buddy Playground's written reviews are positive against 0% of Puppet Break's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Buddy Playground ships an update every 7 months, Puppet Break weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
