# RAID vs Nanobot Circuit

The clearest difference is ratings volume: RAID at 531K against Nanobot Circuit's 1. RAID also leads on chart position (#23 vs unranked). Nanobot Circuit's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RAID sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Nanobot Circuit sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Nanobot Circuit holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RAID has 531K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

RAID ships an update fortnightly, Nanobot Circuit every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
