A fierce ghost is coming! The corridor is in great danger.Everyone could be hunted. The only way to survive is to hide in the room behind the door. Maybe you're wondering what the hell is this? This is a tower defense and escape game. Do you want to challenge yourself? Want to release your stress? Whatever you want, I can help you get it, as long as you lie down on a bed. Back to the topic, this is a horror-style tower defense and escape game. In the game, players need to escape the pursuit of ghosts and find a suitable dormitory to survive in. Build and upgrade turrets and fend off evil spirits. In the game, players can only build facilities on the empty floor in the room. After the empty floor is clicked on, the building menu will pop up. In the game, players need to selectively build facilities according to their own economic status, so as to expand their advantages step by step. If the player defeats the ghost, you won the game, and if the player is eliminated by the ghost, you lost the game.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: BeatDropX at none against Haunted Dorm's shown. Haunted Dorm's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
