ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Twisty Rails holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Twisty Rails has 16K ratings behind it against 262, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Brain Shape Rush's written reviews are positive against 33% of Twisty Rails's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Brain Shape Rush ships an update every 2 months, Twisty Rails every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
