Verdict
Merchant and Medieval Game are too close to call on the numbers: across 10 compared parameters — price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Merchant sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Medieval Game sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Medieval Game holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 53 and 64 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Merchant's written reviews are positive against 45% of Medieval Game's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Merchant ships an update every 2 weeks, Medieval Game every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
