Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Hidden Objects at every 3 weeks against Mystery Hotel's every 8 months. Hidden Objects also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5). Mystery Hotel's advantage is review sentiment (82% vs 60%) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.0). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mystery Hotel sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Hidden Objects sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hidden Objects holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 9.1K and 13K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Mystery Hotel's written reviews are positive against 60% of Hidden Objects's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Mystery Hotel ships an update every 8 months, Hidden Objects every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
