# Gnomes Garden Chapter 4 vs Lost Artifacts Chapter 3

The clearest difference is rating: Lost Artifacts Chapter 3 at 4.5 against Gnomes Garden Chapter 4's 3.9. Gnomes Garden Chapter 4's advantage is review sentiment (18% vs 0%) and ratings volume (90 vs 11). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gnomes Garden Chapter 4 sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Lost Artifacts Chapter 3 sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Lost Artifacts Chapter 3 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gnomes Garden Chapter 4 has 90 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of Gnomes Garden Chapter 4's written reviews are positive against 0% of Lost Artifacts Chapter 3's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Gnomes Garden Chapter 4 ships an update every 40 months, Lost Artifacts Chapter 3 every 27 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
