ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hyrule Compendium holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hyrule Compendium has 421 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Hyrule Compendium's written reviews are positive against 67% of OW Hero Randomizer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Hyrule Compendium ships an update fortnightly, OW Hero Randomizer every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
