Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Merge Lagoon at free against Crazy Carnival's free with in-app purchases. Crazy Carnival's advantage is ratings volume (93 vs 9). On price, rating, update cadence and ads 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. Merge Lagoon sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Crazy Carnival sells 18 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Merge Lagoon against 4.9 for Crazy Carnival. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Crazy Carnival has 93 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
