Paddle

Classic paddle-and-ball arcade action — no timers, no interruptions. Drag to slide your paddle, tap to serve, and outlast the AI in a first-to-7 rally. The ball picks up spin from where it strikes the paddle, and every rally escalates in speed until one side breaks. VERSUS THE AI Winner serves the next point — you tap to send; the AI serves itself after a short beat. Every match resets cleanly when the score reaches 7. THREE DIFFICULTIES • Easy — slower ball, generous AI margins • Medium — faster ball, tighter AI reactions • Hard — fastest ball, near-perfect AI accuracy Haptics and synthesised arcade sounds fire on every paddle hit, wall bounce, and score. No audio files ship with the app. The game is strictly black and white. No account required. No internet required.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SnakeCut at none against Paddle's 1. SnakeCut also leads on iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
