# Pyro Jump vs Mars

The clearest difference is ads: Pyro Jump at none against Mars's shown. Pyro Jump also leads on iOS requirement (8.1 vs 12.0). Mars's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (22K vs 54). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pyro Jump sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Mars sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Mars holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mars has 22K ratings behind it against 54, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 66% of Pyro Jump's written reviews are positive against 91% of Mars's.

Pyro Jump ships an update every 3 months, Mars monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
