# TapJet Space vs Random Space

The clearest difference is rating: Random Space at 4.7 against TapJet Space's 4.5. TapJet Space's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 8 months) and review sentiment (92% vs 83%). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TapJet Space sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Random Space sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Random Space holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 24 and 55 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of TapJet Space's written reviews are positive against 83% of Random Space's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

TapJet Space ships an update every 3 months, Random Space every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
