# Math Escape vs Tangram Puzzles

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Math Escape at 100% against Tangram Puzzles's 56%. Math Escape also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Tangram Puzzles's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (160 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Math Escape sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Tangram Puzzles sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tangram Puzzles holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tangram Puzzles has 160 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Math Escape's written reviews are positive against 56% of Tangram Puzzles's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Math Escape ships an update every 2 months, Tangram Puzzles monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
