# Pearl’s Peril vs Wild West

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Pearl’s Peril at 57K against Wild West's 2.7K. Wild West's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pearl’s Peril sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Wild West sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Pearl’s Peril against 4.5 for Wild West. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pearl’s Peril has 57K ratings behind it against 2.7K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 59% and 59% positive.

Pearl’s Peril ships an update every 3 months, Wild West every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
