# NOX vs Tiny Room Stories Eclipse

The clearest difference is update cadence: Tiny Room Stories Eclipse at daily against NOX's every 5 weeks. NOX's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 62%) and ratings volume (5K vs 164). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NOX sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Tiny Room Stories Eclipse sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

NOX holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NOX has 5K ratings behind it against 164, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of NOX's written reviews are positive against 62% of Tiny Room Stories Eclipse's.

NOX ships an update every 5 weeks, Tiny Room Stories Eclipse daily. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
