Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Gloomhaven Attack Deck at 470 against Frosthacker's 10. Gloomhaven Attack Deck also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.0). Frosthacker's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 4 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Gloomhaven Attack Deck holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gloomhaven Attack Deck has 470 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Gloomhaven Attack Deck's written reviews are positive against 100% of Frosthacker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Gloomhaven Attack Deck ships an update every 4 weeks, Frosthacker every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
