Dot Shooter
Read full descriptionHide full description
Dot Shooter is a twin-stick bullet hell drawn like a blueprint. Move with your left thumb, aim and fire with your right, and slip through enemy fire all the way to wave 20. Every level-up deals you a choice of cards. Split your shots, add crits, slow the swarm or harden the hull, then grow the right cards into one of 13 evolutions. Four sectors Drift, Belt, Reactor and Nebula each have their own enemies, their own Warden and their own trouble: asteroids that block your shots, a beam that sweeps the arena, and fog that hides what hunts you. Keep what you earn Enemies drop Cores. After a boss, extract to bank them all, or push on for more and risk the run. Spend Cores in the hangar on upgrades that last and on 12 of the 30 skins, trails and effects. Earn the other 18 through achievements. Eight ships and one secret Each ship changes the rules. Fork's shots bounce off the walls, Mirror fires both ways, Glass hits twice as hard on a thin hull. Unlock them by playing, then find the ninth. More ways to play - Time Challenge: three minutes, score only - Daily: one seeded run a day, with the same seed, sector and modifiers for everyone - Weekly: a harder seeded run that changes each week - Boss Rush: a sector's three bosses, back to back - Endless: past the Warden, the waves loop harder - Danger: seven levels of harder rules that pay more Cores - Three missions a day that pay Cores - The Log: 100 achievements and a page for every enemy, boss and card you meet Fair ads Your first run has no ads. After that, an ad plays only when you tap for one: a revive, double Cores at the end of a run, or a card reroll. No account needed. ----- Privacy policy: https://dangnguyen.app/dot-shooter/privacy Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
Mower Mogul
Read full descriptionHide full description
Mower Mogul is a cozy lawn mower game for anyone who loves the look of fresh stripes. Cut grass, tame overgrown yards and grow a one-mower side hustle into the busiest lawn care business in town. It has no ads and plays offline. Drag your finger and the grass falls in crisp lines, with soft haptics on every blade. Pull dandelions, trim the hedges, say hi to the cat. Get paid, buy a bigger mower and watch your company grow. GRASS THAT GROWS BACK Every lawn in town is alive. Leave one for a few days and it comes back shaggy. Leave it a week and it turns into a meadow full of flowers, with a bigger payday for taming it. Nothing punishes you for being away. There's just more to mow. STRIPES THAT PAY Drive straight passes back to back to build a stripe combo. Finish at the front walk for a clean exit. Nail a checkerboard and your clients will notice. MORE THAN MOWING Some yards need extra care. Pull weeds, trim hedges, reseed bare patches and fix broken sprinklers, then watch the whole lawn green up. A WHOLE TOWN TO WIN OVER Eleven neighborhoods of clients, from the Maple Court starter lawns and lakeside cottages to hillside estates, seaside bluffs and big farm spreads. Then come twelve venues, including the business park, the school grounds, the ballfield, the university quad, the sports complex, the golf course, the botanical garden and the marina. Browse it all on a 3D town map and plan your route. A GARAGE WORTH COLLECTING Start with the Rusty Reel and work your way up through nine mowers, from nimble push mowers to the Zero-Turn Zephyr and the Emerald Estate, each with its own deck width and top speed. Paint jobs like Cherry Pop, Sky Racer and Mint Chip let you roll up in style. GROW THE BUSINESS Hire a crew to mow while you're away, fund town projects that pay you back, and climb the Game Center leaderboards. A LITTLE EVERY DAY Three fresh goals each day, and a prize chest when you finish all three. Keep your streak going, keep standing appointments with your regulars, and dig up curios for your shelf. PLAY IT YOUR WAY Mower Mogul plays on iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo, and on iPad it works in any orientation. Drive by touch, with a keyboard or with a game controller, and switch between three camera views, from a high drone shot to the driver's seat. It runs without an internet connection, so it's good company on flights and commutes. MADE TO BE CALM There are no timers, lives or energy bars, and you'll never see an ad. You get the hum of the mower, birdsong, and one more lawn before dinner. It's a relaxing game for adults and kids alike, and a satisfying way to switch off at the end of the day. โข Haptics tuned for mowing, weeding and payday โข Plays nicely with your podcasts and music โข Gentle optional reminders, never more than two a day and never at night โข Game Center leaderboards and achievements Free to start: your home lawn, the practice yard, two streets and your first venue. One purchase opens up the whole town for good. There are no subscriptions and no in-game currency to buy. Haptics are iPhone only. Some mowers, streets and venues shown in the screenshots need the one-time Full Game purchase.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dot Shooter at none against Mower Mogul's 2. Dot Shooter also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Mower Mogul's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
