Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Timber Squad at 100% against Jewel Knight's 57%. Jewel Knight's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 3.0) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Timber Squad sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Jewel Knight sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Jewel Knight holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Jewel Knight has 30 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Timber Squad's written reviews are positive against 57% of Jewel Knight's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Timber Squad ships an update every 3 weeks, Jewel Knight every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
