# Cryptical vs DiceGen

The clearest difference is update cadence: Cryptical at every 3 months against DiceGen's every 60 months. Cryptical also leads on ratings volume (3.9K vs 65). DiceGen's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cryptical sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and DiceGen sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Cryptical against 4.9 for DiceGen. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cryptical has 3.9K ratings behind it against 65, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 92% of Cryptical's written reviews are positive against 100% of DiceGen's.

Cryptical ships an update every 3 months, DiceGen every 60 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 16, 2026 respectively.
