Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Stick Hero at 73% against Go Plane's 44%. Go Plane's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (73K vs 11K). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Go Plane holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Go Plane has 73K ratings behind it against 11K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Stick Hero's written reviews are positive against 44% of Go Plane's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Stick Hero ships an update every 4 months, Go Plane every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
