ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Beat Hazard Arcade holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beat Hazard Arcade has 11 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Quick Flick Reactions!'s written reviews are positive against 45% of Beat Hazard Arcade's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Quick Flick Reactions! ships an update every 3 days, Beat Hazard Arcade every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
