Glory Ages - Samurais will transport you to medieval Japan. In the game you get tactical Samurai sword battles, intelligent opponents, all kinds of equipment, numerous locations and even endless mode. Special features 1. Artificial intelligence. We worked a long time to make the enemies intelligent. They can side-step you, circle, counterattack and block your blows during the fight. They react to the death of their soldiers and also gesticulate in various ways during the battle. 2. Numerous characters and weapons. Numerous realistic medieval Japanese weapons, many kinds of Japanese swords, huge arsenal of katanas and all kinds of characters with their own characteristics. 3. Large-scale tactical battles. You have to think about how to beat your enemies, when to block their blows and when to attack. The fury that can save your life at a critical moment, instantly destroying large numbers of the enemy, accumulates during the fight. You can level up your battle experience or improve your character’s equipment. 4. Graphics and sound. An incredible level of graphics and sound accompaniment. A dynamic environment in the background combined with thematic music. 5. Atmospheric environment. Ten different locations under different weather conditions from winter cities to rainy swamps.

The position and timing of walking are important concepts in the game, and you need to explore them in the game, as long as you use them flexibly, you can play freely and gallop on the battlefield. This is a personal development of an independent game, out of the love of action games, spent years to complete this work, I hope you like! At the same time because of the limited time and manpower so the picture can not do too exquisite, but does not affect the game experience. Welcome to leave your suggestions and comments! I will continue to improve, thank you!

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Glory Ages at none against Exist's shown. Glory Ages also leads on ratings volume (9.2K vs 13). Exist's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment 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. Glory Ages sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Exist sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Glory Ages holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Glory Ages has 9.2K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of Glory Ages's written reviews are positive against 86% of Exist's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Glory Ages ships an update every 2 months, Exist every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
