ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cat Simulator 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cat Simulator 2 has 17K ratings behind it against 2.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Cat Simulator 2's written reviews are positive against 86% of Bubbu's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Cat Simulator 2 ships an update every 2 months, Bubbu monthly. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
