# NumTown vs Math Games

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Math Games at 1.6K against NumTown's 33. Math Games also leads on review sentiment (66% vs 57%) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). NumTown's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NumTown sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month 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.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for NumTown against 4.5 for Math Games. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Games has 1.6K ratings behind it against 33, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 57% of NumTown's written reviews are positive against 66% of Math Games's.

NumTown ships an update fortnightly, Math Games every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
