Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Dino.io 3D at every 3 weeks against Monster Trainer's every 4 months. Dino.io 3D also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.4). Monster Trainer's advantage is review sentiment (54% vs 32%). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Dino.io 3D sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Monster Trainer sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Dino.io 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10K and 3.5K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of Dino.io 3D's written reviews are positive against 54% of Monster Trainer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dino.io 3D ships an update every 3 weeks, Monster Trainer every 4 months. Both last shipped on November 12, 2026.
