Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: 13! at 4.3 against Threes! Freeplay's 3.8. 13! also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). Threes! Freeplay's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and review sentiment (54% vs 34%). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. 13! sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Threes! Freeplay asks for nothing beyond the download.
13! holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 13! has 8.4K ratings behind it against 624, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Threes! Freeplay's written reviews are positive against 34% of 13!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Threes! Freeplay ships an update every 2 months, 13! every 10 days. Both last shipped on September 26, 2026.
