You and an elite team of Space Marines are sent to the distant Deimos science station to provide security and investigate recent happenings on the moon outpost. Upon arrival you quickly discover that not all is as it seems... You and your team of marines will have to investigate the various corridors of the Deimos science station to determine what is going on. Along the way you will be presented which choices, and the choices you make will determine how the game plays out. You will also find different items, weapons, and armors along the way to help on your quest. There will also be dangerous enemies waiting for you to fight throughout the station! It's classic roleplaying adventure mixed with the convenience of mobile! And who can beat a free game? Deimos is an action and story driven mobile role playing adventure game based on the acclaimed Level Up RPG engine by Ape Apps. The game is designed with mobile users in mind, built for easy pick up and play. Simple controls and an encompassing storyline will make Deimos a must have for your iOS app game library! Deimos takes a simplified approach to the RPG genre. It is made in a way that is quick to pick up and learn, and you should be able to play for either a few minutes, or a few hours. After a while, it can get addicting. Like other role playing games, you travel and find different items and weapons and put them to use while fighting off baddies. Watch your health and energy and try to survive. Deimos is designed to be easy to play for users of all ages, from kids to adults. This is not a complicated RPG so anybody should be able to master it quickly. It also runs well on both handset and tablet devices. If you like Deimos and this style of mobile role playing game, then you should try my other mobile RPG called Level Up RPG, a role playing game on which Deimos was based.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Deimos at 5.0 against Zombien's 4.5. Deimos also leads on update cadence (every 7 months vs every 22 months). Zombien's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 50%) and ratings volume (114 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Deimos sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Zombien sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Deimos holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zombien has 114 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Deimos's written reviews are positive against 75% of Zombien's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Deimos ships an update every 7 months, Zombien every 22 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
