# MONGIL vs Monkey Battle

The clearest difference is ads: MONGIL at none against Monkey Battle's shown. MONGIL also leads on ratings volume (4K vs 12). Monkey Battle's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MONGIL sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Monkey Battle sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Monkey Battle holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MONGIL has 4K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of MONGIL's written reviews are positive against 100% of Monkey Battle's.

MONGIL ships an update monthly, Monkey Battle weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
