# Dune! vs Fall Ball

The clearest difference is rating: Dune! at 4.5 against Fall Ball's 3.4. Dune! also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 17 months) and ratings volume (545K vs 18). Fall Ball's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dune! sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Fall Ball sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Dune! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dune! has 545K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Dune! ships an update fortnightly, Fall Ball every 17 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
