# Captain Nemo vs Hidden Journey

Captain Nemo and Hidden Journey both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 87% of Captain Nemo's written reviews are positive against 52% of Hidden Journey's. Hidden Journey's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 22 months) and ratings volume (26K vs 3.6K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Captain Nemo sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Hidden Journey sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Captain Nemo against 4.5 for Hidden Journey. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hidden Journey has 26K ratings behind it against 3.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 87% of Captain Nemo's written reviews are positive against 52% of Hidden Journey's.

Captain Nemo ships an update every 22 months, Hidden Journey every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
