# IT vs Der Dom

IT and Der Dom are too close to call on the numbers: across 6 compared parameters — price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.

Both are free to download. IT sells 46 one-off in-app purchases and Der Dom sells 20 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

IT ships an update every 10 months, Der Dom every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
