# Spin Knight vs Project Dark

The clearest difference is rating: Spin Knight at 4.0 against Project Dark's 3.3. Spin Knight also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). Project Dark's advantage is review sentiment (54% vs 40%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spin Knight sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Project Dark sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spin Knight holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 18 and 15 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Spin Knight's written reviews are positive against 54% of Project Dark's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Spin Knight ships an update every 2 months, Project Dark monthly. Both last shipped on July 5, 2026.
