# Magic World vs Wizard Hero

The clearest difference is ads: Magic World at none against Wizard Hero's shown. Magic World also leads on review sentiment (40% vs 27%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). Wizard Hero's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (7.8K vs 27). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Magic World sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Wizard Hero sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Wizard Hero holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wizard Hero has 7.8K ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Magic World's written reviews are positive against 27% of Wizard Hero's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Magic World ships an update every 10 months, Wizard Hero weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
