# The Quest vs ATOM RPG

The clearest difference is rating: The Quest at 5.0 against ATOM RPG's 4.3. The Quest also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). ATOM RPG's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (222 vs 5). On device support there is nothing between them.

The Quest costs $2.99 and ATOM RPG $9.99 up front. ATOM RPG sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. The Quest asks for nothing beyond the download.
