# ATOM RPG vs The Quest

The clearest difference is rating: The Quest at 5.0 against ATOM RPG's 4.3. The Quest also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). ATOM RPG's advantage is ratings volume (221 vs 4) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). On device support there is nothing between them.

ATOM RPG costs $9.99 and The Quest $2.99 up front. ATOM RPG sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. The Quest asks for nothing beyond the download.

The Quest holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ATOM RPG has 221 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

ATOM RPG ships an update every 5 weeks, The Quest every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
