# Drop the Cat vs Fruit Hole

The clearest difference is ads: Drop the Cat at none against Fruit Hole's shown. Drop the Cat also leads on ratings volume (24K vs 2.6K) and chart position (#80 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Drop the Cat sells 16 one-off in-app purchases and Fruit Hole sells 12 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 — 4.6 for Drop the Cat against 4.7 for Fruit Hole. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Drop the Cat has 24K ratings behind it against 2.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 29% of Drop the Cat's written reviews are positive against 21% of Fruit Hole's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
