Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Tempest at 4.7 against Waroftanks's 3.6. Tempest also leads on ratings volume (10K vs 112). Waroftanks's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). 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. Waroftanks sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Tempest sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Tempest holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tempest has 10K ratings behind it against 112, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Waroftanks's written reviews are positive against 59% of Tempest's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Waroftanks ships an update every 6 weeks, Tempest every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
