Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Dice at none against Original Farkle's shown. Dice also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 47%). Original Farkle's advantage is ratings volume (4.6K vs 280) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Dice against 4.7 for Original Farkle. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Original Farkle has 4.6K ratings behind it against 280, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 80% of Dice's written reviews are positive against 47% of Original Farkle's.
Dice ships an update monthly, Original Farkle every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
