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. BOWBLITZ sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Penguin GO! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
BOWBLITZ holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.1K and 3.3K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of BOWBLITZ's written reviews are positive against 46% of Penguin GO!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 8, 2026.
