# 100 Balls vs Drop Ball 3D

The clearest difference is rating: Drop Ball 3D at 4.6 against 100 Balls's 4.0. 100 Balls's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (67% vs 33%). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 100 Balls sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Drop Ball 3D sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Drop Ball 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.8K and 1.5K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of 100 Balls's written reviews are positive against 33% of Drop Ball 3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

100 Balls ships an update every 4 weeks, Drop Ball 3D every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
