Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Dour at free against DICE's free with in-app purchases. Dour also leads on review sentiment (69% vs 48%) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). DICE's advantage is ratings volume (86K vs 2) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Dour against 4.9 for DICE. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DICE has 86K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 69% of Dour's written reviews are positive against 48% of DICE's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dour ships an update every 3 weeks, DICE weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
