# DEEMO II vs Liminality

The clearest difference is ratings volume: DEEMO II at 3.8K against Liminality's 24. DEEMO II also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and chart position (#147 vs unranked). Liminality's advantage is review sentiment (82% vs 68%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DEEMO II sells 43 one-off in-app purchases and Liminality sells 20 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

DEEMO II holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DEEMO II has 3.8K ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of DEEMO II's written reviews are positive against 82% of Liminality's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

DEEMO II ships an update every 2 months, Liminality every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
