# Micro Battles 3 vs Donut Games

The clearest difference is rating: Donut Games at 4.5 against Micro Battles 3's 3.9. Donut Games also leads on review sentiment (90% vs 56%) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 45 months). Micro Battles 3's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Micro Battles 3 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Donut Games sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Donut Games holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Donut Games has 11K ratings behind it against 152, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 56% of Micro Battles 3's written reviews are positive against 90% of Donut Games's.

Micro Battles 3 ships an update every 45 months, Donut Games every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
