# Splashin vs Hide Game

The clearest difference is ads: Splashin at none against Hide Game's shown. Splashin also leads on ratings volume (260K vs 13) and chart position (#98 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Splashin sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.00 per 7 days and Hide Game sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Splashin against 4.8 for Hide Game. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Splashin has 260K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 98% of Splashin's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hide Game's.

Splashin ships an update every 11 days, Hide Game every 8 days. Both last shipped on November 9, 2026.
