# Galactic Warzone vs Starbolt

The clearest difference is update cadence: Starbolt at daily against Galactic Warzone's every 3 days. Galactic Warzone's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Galactic Warzone sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Starbolt sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Galactic Warzone against 5.0 for Starbolt. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Galactic Warzone has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Galactic Warzone ships an update every 3 days, Starbolt daily. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
