Cross the road. Ride the boats. Don't get flattened. HoppyQuest is an endless hopper built for Apple Watch and nothing else. One tap, one swipe, or one turn of the Digital Crown per hop — runs that fit in the gap between two things you're actually doing. COLLECT 1,000 CHARACTERS 750 animals and 250 humans, from a plain duck to a golden astronaut. Every one is bought with coins you earn by playing, and you pick exactly which one you want. No random pulls, no surprise mechanics. EVERY CHARACTER BRINGS ITS OWN WORLD Whoever you equip decides the whole map. The camel gives you desert sand and cacti. The penguin, snow and frosted pines. The witch, a purple moor with gravestones. Same lanes, same speed, same collisions — a completely different place to die in. PLAY IT YOUR WAY Swipe, Digital Crown, tap to hop. Turn on whichever you like, in any combination, at whatever swipe length suits your wrist. KEEP COMING BACK A quest board with something to chase. One free spin every day. And an island where your whole collection lives, where you choose one character for solid ground and another for the water. No account. No ads. No in-app purchases. Nothing ever leaves your watch.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HoppyQuest at none against Bean Step's 4. Bean Step's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
