# Whobert's Path vs Escape Time

Whobert's Path and Escape Time both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 95% of Whobert's Path's written reviews are positive against 48% of Escape Time's. Whobert's Path also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). Escape Time's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 52 months) and ratings volume (14K vs 17). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Whobert's Path sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Escape Time sells 10 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 — 4.5 for Whobert's Path against 4.6 for Escape Time. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Escape Time has 14K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 95% of Whobert's Path's written reviews are positive against 48% of Escape Time's.

Whobert's Path ships an update every 52 months, Escape Time every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
