Domino Runnner holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Domino Runnner has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Domino Runnner's written reviews are positive against 100% of ThousandShadow's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Domino Runnner ships an update every 2 months, ThousandShadow every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
