# Bit Heroes Quest vs Re

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Bit Heroes Quest at 22K against Re's 513. Bit Heroes Quest also leads on chart position (#181 vs unranked). Re's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly) and review sentiment (82% vs 73%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bit Heroes Quest sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Re sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Bit Heroes Quest against 4.7 for Re. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bit Heroes Quest has 22K ratings behind it against 513, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 73% of Bit Heroes Quest's written reviews are positive against 82% of Re's.

Bit Heroes Quest ships an update monthly, Re every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
