Tricky Shot holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tricky Shot has 381 ratings behind it against 29, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of 99 Challenges!'s written reviews are positive against 36% of Tricky Shot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
99 Challenges! ships an update every 3 weeks, Tricky Shot monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 7, 2026 and July 30, 2026 respectively.
