Both are free to download. Dark Notes sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. 噩梦：逃生 asks for nothing beyond the download.
Dark Notes holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0.

Written reviews complicate that: 60% of 噩梦：逃生's written reviews are positive against 43% of Dark Notes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
噩梦：逃生 ships an update every 2 weeks, Dark Notes every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
