Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Puzzles & Survival at none against RAID's shown. Puzzles & Survival also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). RAID's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (531K vs 58K). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. RAID sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Puzzles & Survival sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
RAID holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RAID has 531K ratings behind it against 58K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 44% of RAID's written reviews are positive against 37% of Puzzles & Survival's.
RAID ships an update fortnightly, Puzzles & Survival every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
