# Dreamwalker vs Cat Jam

The clearest difference is rating: Cat Jam at 5.0 against Dreamwalker's 4.2. Cat Jam also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Dreamwalker's advantage is ratings volume (139 vs 9). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dreamwalker sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month and Cat Jam sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cat Jam holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dreamwalker has 139 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Dreamwalker ships an update monthly, Cat Jam fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
