# Chess!! vs Triominos

The clearest difference is rating: Triominos at 4.4 against Chess!!'s 4.0. Triominos also leads on ratings volume (454 vs 60). Chess!!'s advantage is review sentiment (69% vs 58%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chess!! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Triominos sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Triominos holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Triominos has 454 ratings behind it against 60, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Chess!!'s written reviews are positive against 58% of Triominos's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Chess!! ships an update every 5 months, Triominos every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
