"Art so beautiful it could have been lifted from a Miyazaki movie." –WIRED Autumn is coming. Leaves fall, and spirits rise from the fallen leaves to begin their journey home. You must guide them, without direct control, by changing how the wind blows or by rebuilding the ground. Each spirit can be sacrificed to perform one of four actions - build a bridge of leaves, create a blowing cloud, dig tunnels, or block wind currents in an area. Use your actions wisely or you will run out of spirits. In each level it's up to you to find your own creative solution on how to get the spirits to the goal. ◆◆◆◆◆ REVIEWS ◆◆◆◆◆ "Striking art and innovative gameplay" –The Escapist "Spirits is clever, challenging, and beautiful" –Gamasutra "Spirits is an outstanding blend of puzzle and strategy" –DIYgamer "The overall design -- graphics, animation, audio tracks -- as well as the whimsical element of soaring on the wind, really make this an enjoyable title to experience" –TouchArcade "Gorgeous visuals; ambient music; solid level design" –Slide To Play "Where Spirits really innovates is in its look and feel. When the wind physics start to do their thing, the experience is pretty magical" –TUAW, Mike Schramm "Spirits is more than just a pretty face, as you'll utilize little creatures to build ladders, dig tunnels, or blow gusts of wind to get their counterparts to an exit. It's similar to what we've seen in Lemmings or Downstream Panic, but the use of wind and the diverse puzzles keep things fresh and interesting" –GamesRadar "Relaxing, stunning, and simple will keep players coming back for more" –148Apps "Visually, the game is gorgeous. Everything has a soft, ethereal vibe to it, particularly the soothing ambient music and the challenging (but not frustrating) level design" –The Mac Gamer "There is so much attention to detail in this game that once you have finished it you will want to play it all over again" –CreativeApplications.net ◆◆◆◆◆ AWARDS ◆◆◆◆◆ Winner of the IndieCade "Best Aesthetics" Award, Culver City, California, USA – 2010 IGF 2011: Best Mobile Game - Honorable mention Sense of Wonder Night Selection at Tokyo Game Show, Japan – 2010 Gamasutra's Best Of 2010: Top 5 iOS Games - Honorable mention ◆◆◆◆◆ VIDEO & SUPPORT ◆◆◆◆◆ Visit www.spacesofplay.com/spirits to watch a gameplay video.

Embark on an epic journey through the world of Digs, a thrilling roguelike tower defense game that has evolved through six months of intensive community testing, receiving frequent updates and enhancements. We are excited to present Digs, a game like no other in its genre. Digs seamlessly blends dungeon exploration, mining, and tower defense into a unique gaming experience. As the commander of all enemy paths, your towers are not just for defense – they're also your key to shaping the battlefield. Procedurally generated mines await your exploration, brimming with valuable resources hidden within various blocks. To conquer the diverse challenges presented by different enemies and environments, you must strategically wield your arsenal. One of Digs' distinctive features is its innovative in-game economy. Say goodbye to traditional gold and embrace the use of action points. Every action you take generates noise, and when the noise counter hits zero, it's time to either send the wave or heed the wise wizard's counsel and make a hasty retreat, just as wizard once said, "Run, you fools!" Your actions are a precious resource, so manage them wisely, as they become increasingly vital in later waves. Utilize your basic towers for path creation, and enhance their capabilities with upgrade cards you discover during your journey. These cards hold the power to turn the tide in your favor, creating strategic chokepoints that thwart your foes. Customize your arsenal by building your deck with a wide array of upgrade cards, each offering unique abilities to tackle the diverse threats you'll face. Digs throws a variety of enemies with distinct behaviors your way, ensuring you'll need to adapt and revise your strategies continually. Just when you think you've found the perfect defense, a new adversary enters the scene, keeping you on your toes. However, fear not, as you'll have an arsenal of tools at your disposal to craft innovative strategies. With 17 diverse levels (and more to come), Digs introduces new challenges, from unfamiliar enemies to environmental hazards and disasters. Stay vigilant as you tackle these ever-evolving tests. For players of all styles, Digs offers four different game modes for each level. Whether you're in it for casual exploration, a heightened challenge, or endless battles, Digs caters to your preferences. Join our thriving Discord community to discuss ongoing updates, new features, and share your experiences with fellow Digs enthusiasts. Grab your pickaxe and get ready to dig deep into the world of Digs. Your journey awaits – keep digging!

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Spirits at 89% against Digs Premium's 33%. Spirits also leads on ratings volume (64 vs 1) and price ($2.99 vs $4.99). Digs Premium's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.5) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Spirits costs $2.99 and Digs Premium $4.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Digs Premium holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spirits has 64 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Spirits's written reviews are positive against 33% of Digs Premium's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Spirits ships an update every 3 months, Digs Premium every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
