Meet Neko - a tiny pixel kitten with a pair of bongos, and she plays every time you tap. Drum along, fill treasure chests, and collect 20 cute hats. She's drawn entirely in hand-designed retro pixel art: crisp, colorful pixels, built pixel by pixel, frame by frame. TAP TO DRUM Tap the left or right side of the screen and Neko slaps the bongo on that side. Use two fingers for a roll and watch your combo climb. Drumming is always free. OPEN CHESTS, COLLECT HATS Every tap fills a treasure chest. Open it to win a hat - 20 to collect across five rarities, from a Party Hat to a legendary Royal Crown. You won't get a duplicate until you've found them all. Try them on in the Character Studio and see which ones you're still missing. SHE'S A REAL PET TOO Pat her head to pet her: forehead pats, chin tickles, cheek hugs and a happy giggle. Every gesture gets its own reaction, drawn from 30+ hand-designed pixel expressions. Between reactions her ears twitch, her tail swishes and she breathes on her own - she's never quite frozen. DRUM FROM YOUR HOME SCREEN Put Neko in a Home Screen widget and she's there every time you unlock your phone - no box around her, just the kitten sitting on your wallpaper among your apps. Boop her right there and every boop counts as a drum tap, without opening the app. MEET THE KITTENS Neko comes in five hand-painted palettes, each with her own name: Momo (peach), Matcha (mint), Lulu (lavender), Latte (cream) and Kumo (sky). Mix in different ear and eye styles and no two Nekos look quite alike. SHE REMEMBERS HOW YOU TREAT HER A mood system tracks your whole relationship with her - be sweet and she stays happy; poke too hard, too often, and she'll let you know about it. Mood changes how she sits and what she does with herself, and drop in late at night and you'll find her drowsy. A JOURNAL OF EVERY HABIT YOU CATCH Every little habit and expression you catch her doing gets logged in her journal - 50+ to find, some common, some rare. The ones you haven't seen yet wait there as silhouettes. A COZY ROOM Wallpaper, fairy lights and a window that follows the time of day. Sweet sung "mew" notes, a scatter of spoken voice lines, a real laugh, and bongo sounds that feel great to play. COZY, NOT COMPLICATED There's no hunger bar, nothing decays, and skipping a day costs you nothing at all. Slip her a treat whenever you feel like it, come back tomorrow and she just keeps count. Free to play. Grab the bongos - Neko is waiting.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Neko at 4.0 against Avatar Maker's 2.3. Neko also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3). Avatar Maker's advantage is review sentiment (27% vs 0%) and ratings volume (530 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Avatar Maker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Neko asks for nothing beyond the download.
Neko holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Avatar Maker has 530 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of Avatar Maker's written reviews are positive against 0% of Neko's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 8, 2026.
