Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Math Games at 4.5 against Math Gremlin's 3.8. Math Games also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 4). Math Gremlin's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Math Gremlin sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Math Games sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Math Games holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Games has 1.6K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Math Gremlin's written reviews are positive against 67% of Math Games's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Math Gremlin ships an update every 2 months, Math Games every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
