ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Dino Tim Premium holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dino Tim Premium has 41 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Dino Tim Premium's written reviews are positive against 100% of Idle Restaurant Empire's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dino Tim Premium ships an update every 20 months, Idle Restaurant Empire fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
