Verdict
Asteroid Clicker and Topiary 3D both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Asteroid Clicker's written reviews are positive against 38% of Topiary 3D's. Asteroid Clicker also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1). Topiary 3D's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 150 months) and ratings volume (658 vs 6). On price and rating 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. Topiary 3D sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Asteroid Clicker asks for nothing beyond the download.
Topiary 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Topiary 3D has 658 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Asteroid Clicker's written reviews are positive against 38% of Topiary 3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Asteroid Clicker ships an update every 150 months, Topiary 3D every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
