ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Knife n Run holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Knife n Run has 94 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Knife n Run's written reviews are positive against 100% of Raft Evolution's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Knife n Run ships an update monthly, Raft Evolution every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
