Munch is hungry! Help the little purple monster through 200 mazes, eat all the cheese and outsmart everyone in his way. Grab the golden super cheese — and now the enemies run from you. Swipe to guide Munch: he runs until he hits a wall, and you can queue a turn ahead — he takes it at the next corner. Collect the blue energy crumbs to open the portal to the next level. Want three stars? Finish the level, eat almost all the cheese and beat the target time. EIGHT WORLDS, EIGHT NEW GAMES • Green Hills — wanderers, hunters and your first blocks • Caves — bombs, cracked walls and a sleeper you'd better not wake • Ice Peaks — slippery ice, penguins and a snowflake that freezes enemies • Desert — dunes, quicksand and a sprinting lizard • Mushroom Forest — hiding bushes, bouncy mushrooms and a web-weaving spider • Volcano — lava, melting cheese and a bouncing fireball • Factory — conveyors, button gates and a robot that eats your cheese • Cheese Castle — keys, doors, portals and a ghost that floats through walls EIGHT BOSSES Every world ends in a boss lair: from the Greedy Slime to the fire-breathing Cheese Dragon. Collect crumbs, grab the super cheese — three hits and the way is clear. WHAT'S INSIDE • Yummies from every game — save them up for a second life • Endless mode: room after room until the Hunger catches up • Daily challenge: a new map every day and a streak flame • Daily quests: three small tasks with yummies for each • World treats and a Book of Flavours to fill • 72 achievements and three leaderboards in Game Center • Progress saved in iCloud, safe when you change iPhones • An original 8-bit soundtrack EASY TO PLAY • One-finger controls, game controller support • VoiceOver, larger text, reduced motion • iPhone and iPad, any orientation on iPad • A home-screen widget with your streak flame • Plays offline FAIR The whole first world (25 levels and its boss), endless mode and the daily challenge are free. One single purchase unlocks every level and future worlds — no subscription, no ads. Yummies are only earned in the game; they are never sold for money. Munch's family is optional, one by one or the whole family at once: they change only how the hero looks, never the game. We don't collect your data.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Munch at none against Gear Wars's shown. Gear Wars's advantage is iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
