Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Merge Mayor at none against Clockmaker's shown. Merge Mayor also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 43%) and update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). Clockmaker's advantage is chart position (#115 vs unranked) and ratings volume (186K vs 27K). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. Clockmaker sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Merge Mayor sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Merge Mayor holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clockmaker has 186K ratings behind it against 27K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 43% of Clockmaker's written reviews are positive against 63% of Merge Mayor's.
Clockmaker ships an update fortnightly, Merge Mayor every 4 days. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
