Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Seabeard at 3.2K against Marooned's 119. Seabeard also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads 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. Seabeard sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Marooned sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Seabeard holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seabeard has 3.2K ratings behind it against 119, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Seabeard's written reviews are positive against 77% of Marooned's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Seabeard ships an update every 2 months, Marooned monthly. Both last shipped on October 12, 2026.
