The position and timing of walking are important concepts in the game, and you need to explore them in the game, as long as you use them flexibly, you can play freely and gallop on the battlefield. This is a personal development of an independent game, out of the love of action games, spent years to complete this work, I hope you like! At the same time because of the limited time and manpower so the picture can not do too exquisite, but does not affect the game experience. Welcome to leave your suggestions and comments! I will continue to improve, thank you!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Endless Nightmare 5 at 710 against Exist's 13. Exist's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks) and review sentiment (86% vs 72%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Endless Nightmare 5 sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Exist sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Endless Nightmare 5 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Endless Nightmare 5 has 710 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Endless Nightmare 5's written reviews are positive against 86% of Exist's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Endless Nightmare 5 ships an update every 3 weeks, Exist every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
