TrapMania holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Monocular Enemy has 93 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of TrapMania's written reviews are positive against 83% of Monocular Enemy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TrapMania ships an update every 7 months, Monocular Enemy every 15 months. The most recent releases landed on August 14, 2026 and July 5, 2026 respectively.
