Each has its own pipes. DAILY CHALLENGE Every day, everyone gets the same bird and the same pipes. Hit the day's target and climb the daily leaderboard. EARN EVERYTHING BY PLAYING Unlock birds with your best run, or keep a daily streak going and every pipe adds up. 31 Game Center achievements and a leaderboard for every bird. Every earnable bird can be earned by playing. If you'd rather not wait, the store has single birds, team packs and the Loopy Pass, which unlocks every bird and background in the game.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Loopy Bird at none against Chrome Dino Run's shown. Loopy Bird also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 53%) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). Chrome Dino Run's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.8) and ratings volume (3K vs 138). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. Loopy Bird sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Chrome Dino Run sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Chrome Dino Run holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chrome Dino Run has 3K ratings behind it against 138, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Loopy Bird's written reviews are positive against 53% of Chrome Dino Run's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Loopy Bird ships an update monthly, Chrome Dino Run every 3 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
