# 三國演義 vs Dianetics

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dianetics at none against 三國演義's 1. Dianetics also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (30 vs 3). 三國演義's advantage is iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.4). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 三國演義 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Dianetics asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for 三國演義 against 4.9 for Dianetics. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dianetics has 30 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

三國演義 ships an update every 10 months, Dianetics every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
