# Mars Miners vs Slime Weapon Master

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mars Miners at 100% against Slime Weapon Master's 54%. Mars Miners also leads on ads (none vs shown). Slime Weapon Master's advantage is ratings volume (5.5K vs 4) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mars Miners sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Slime Weapon Master sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Slime Weapon Master holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Slime Weapon Master has 5.5K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Mars Miners's written reviews are positive against 54% of Slime Weapon Master's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Mars Miners ships an update every 4 weeks, Slime Weapon Master every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
