Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
MollyteaUS holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MollyteaUS has 1.2K ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of MalaTown US's written reviews are positive against 41% of MollyteaUS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MalaTown US ships an update every 2 months, MollyteaUS every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
