Summary

Posted Oct 12, 2026 (19:10 UTC). Developer Max Blade gave Muse Wonder Full and Claude Opus 5.5 the same prompt (a 3D lawn-mower simulator) and posts a video of the results. He reports ‘Api equivalent cost: muse - $4.11, opus - $99.43’, concludes that ‘muse is not anywhere near close to frontier in 3d tasks like video games, or even printable cad designs’, and says the run ‘burned my $50 plan spending $4.11 in api equivalent tokens’, so that he ‘had to upgrade to $200 plan to finish this run’. One user’s single test; the cost figures are his own.

Is Muse Wonder full better than opus 5.5?

I gave them the same prompt

goal is to build me a triple aaa level lawn mower simulator i can drink beer and smoke a cigar.

Api equivalent cost : muse - $4.11 opus - $99.43

It is very clear that muse is not anywhere near close to frontier in 3d tasks like video games, or even printable cad designs.

Even scarier is it burned my $50 plan spending $4.11 in api equivalent tokens.

wut?!

i had to upgrade to $200 plan to finish this run.
