# Slime vs Micro RPG

The clearest difference is ads: Slime at none against Micro RPG's shown. Slime also leads on review sentiment (85% vs 67%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Micro RPG's advantage is ratings volume (7.7K vs 348) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Slime sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Micro RPG sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Micro RPG holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Micro RPG has 7.7K ratings behind it against 348, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Slime's written reviews are positive against 67% of Micro RPG's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Slime ships an update every 5 days, Micro RPG weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
