Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Dungeoning at none against Time Idle RPG's shown. Dungeoning also leads on ratings volume (105 vs 6) and review sentiment (59% vs 47%). Time Idle RPG's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Dungeoning sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Time Idle RPG sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Time Idle RPG holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dungeoning has 105 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Dungeoning's written reviews are positive against 47% of Time Idle RPG's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Dungeoning ships an update every 6 weeks, Time Idle RPG every 4 days. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
