# CombatFlows vs Shaolin Online

The clearest difference is rating: Shaolin Online at 4.8 against CombatFlows's 3.0. Shaolin Online also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 50%) and update cadence (every 5 months vs every 114 months). CombatFlows's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CombatFlows sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Shaolin Online sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Shaolin Online holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shaolin Online has 124 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of CombatFlows's written reviews are positive against 88% of Shaolin Online's.

CombatFlows ships an update every 114 months, Shaolin Online every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
