# Pulling USA vs MudRunner Mobile

The clearest difference is rating: MudRunner Mobile at 4.6 against Pulling USA's 4.2. MudRunner Mobile also leads on ratings volume (3.1K vs 153) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). Pulling USA's advantage is price ($1.99 vs $5.99) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.6). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Pulling USA costs $1.99 and MudRunner Mobile $5.99 up front. Pulling USA sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and MudRunner Mobile sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MudRunner Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MudRunner Mobile has 3.1K ratings behind it against 153, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Pulling USA's written reviews are positive against 65% of MudRunner Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Pulling USA ships an update every 3 months, MudRunner Mobile every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
