# FantasyTown vs DAVE THE DIVER

The clearest difference is ads: DAVE THE DIVER at none against FantasyTown's shown. DAVE THE DIVER also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (332 vs 14). FantasyTown's advantage is review sentiment (90% vs 58%) and rating (4.6 vs 4.2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FantasyTown sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and DAVE THE DIVER sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FantasyTown holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DAVE THE DIVER has 332 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 90% of FantasyTown's written reviews are positive against 58% of DAVE THE DIVER's.

FantasyTown ships an update every 5 weeks, DAVE THE DIVER every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
