ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mr.shape's WorkWork holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PinballMonsters has 85 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of PinballMonsters's written reviews are positive against 83% of Mr.shape's WorkWork's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PinballMonsters ships an update every 7 months, Mr.shape's WorkWork every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
