Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Escape at 4.5 against Escape #2's 4.0. Escape also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). Escape #2's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 11 months) and review sentiment (71% vs 50%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Escape #2 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Escape sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Escape holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Escape #2 has 48 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Escape #2's written reviews are positive against 50% of Escape's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Escape #2 ships an update every 6 weeks, Escape every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
