# Hidden Journey vs Hidden Objects

Hidden Journey and Hidden Objects both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 52% of Hidden Journey's written reviews are positive against 21% of Hidden Objects's. Hidden Journey also leads on ratings volume (26K vs 104). Hidden Objects's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 3 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hidden Journey sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Hidden Objects sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Hidden Journey against 4.6 for Hidden Objects. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hidden Journey has 26K ratings behind it against 104, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 52% of Hidden Journey's written reviews are positive against 21% of Hidden Objects's.

Hidden Journey ships an update every 3 months, Hidden Objects every 11 days. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
