Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Into the Dead 2 at 4.8 against Alien's 4.5. Into the Dead 2 also leads on ratings volume (9.3K vs 1.3K). Alien's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 66%) and chart position (#183 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
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. Alien sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Into the Dead 2 sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Into the Dead 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Into the Dead 2 has 9.3K ratings behind it against 1.3K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Alien's written reviews are positive against 66% of Into the Dead 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Alien ships an update every 2 months, Into the Dead 2 every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
