My uncle who was one of the prestigious members of Solo Knight unexpectedly came home from a mysterious place. He took out a shabby parchment which was said to be written by Max, the head of Solo Knight. There was a blurry mark on that paper. My uncle told me that was the very place where his old friends were located. Everything's going so adventurously. We finally arrived at the location. What we were facing was way beyond our imagination. Monsters and strange creatures were hiding in the darkness. We had to struggle to survive. Coincidentally, we discovered a vast and miraculous underground world. My story as a knight starts from now on. Endless darkness and abyss await us to explore together. - Contact us: soloknight@shimmergames.com https://www.facebook.com/soloknighten

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Solo Knight at none against Hyper Dungeon's shown. Solo Knight also leads on review sentiment (78% vs 50%) and ratings volume (445 vs 40). Hyper Dungeon's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
