Inhabitants of most planets have very powerful powers, with the exception of Earth. One day, the Sun moved into a new era creating a terrifying explosion, burning all the planets. Earth is the only place to live, all the races on other planets have moved here, using all their strength to protect this last planet and get through the Apocalypse. As time passed, the original unity was gone, leaving behind the contempt of powerful races with Humans, who divided the land and ruled over Humans like slaves. At that moment, Humanity appeared 3 siblings with special powers, that is to copy the power of others. From there these Chosen Ones begin their journey to reclaim their planet.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Ancient Gods at 4.8 against Miracle Merchant's 4.4. On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence 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. Miracle Merchant sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Ancient Gods sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Ancient Gods holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.7K and 2K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Miracle Merchant's written reviews are positive against 66% of Ancient Gods's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. Both last shipped on November 12, 2026.
