Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Nebulous.io at every 2 weeks against Warlings's every 17 months. Nebulous.io also leads on ratings volume (2.6K vs 62) and rating (4.1 vs 3.9). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases 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. Nebulous.io sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Warlings sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Nebulous.io holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nebulous.io has 2.6K ratings behind it against 62, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Nebulous.io's written reviews are positive against 57% of Warlings's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Nebulous.io ships an update every 2 weeks, Warlings every 17 months. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
