# Spider . vs Russian Solitaire

The clearest difference is ads: Russian Solitaire at none against Spider .'s shown. Russian Solitaire also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Spider .'s advantage is ratings volume (3.9K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spider . sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Russian Solitaire sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Russian Solitaire holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spider . has 3.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Spider . ships an update every 5 weeks, Russian Solitaire every 3 days. Both last shipped on October 13, 2026.
