Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Soul Knight at every 4 weeks against Big Hunter's every 3 months. Soul Knight also leads on ratings volume (127K vs 5.6K) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Big Hunter sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Soul Knight sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Soul Knight holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Soul Knight has 127K ratings behind it against 5.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Big Hunter's written reviews are positive against 72% of Soul Knight's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Big Hunter ships an update every 3 months, Soul Knight every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
