# Space Spacy vs Cat Simulator 2

The clearest difference is rating: Cat Simulator 2 at 4.7 against Space Spacy's 3.5. Cat Simulator 2 also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 67 months) and ratings volume (17K vs 2). Space Spacy's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 72%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Space Spacy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Cat Simulator 2 sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cat Simulator 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cat Simulator 2 has 17K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Space Spacy's written reviews are positive against 72% of Cat Simulator 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Space Spacy ships an update every 67 months, Cat Simulator 2 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
