Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Cacho at 100% against RISK's 35%. Cacho also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). RISK's advantage is ratings volume (188K vs 3) and chart position (#150 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. RISK sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Cacho sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cacho holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RISK has 188K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 35% of RISK's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cacho's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

RISK ships an update monthly, Cacho every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
