# Dark Throne vs Epic Dungeons

The clearest difference is rating: Epic Dungeons at 5.0 against Dark Throne's 4.4. Epic Dungeons also leads on ads (none vs shown). Dark Throne's advantage is ratings volume (148 vs 4). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dark Throne sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Epic Dungeons sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Epic Dungeons holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dark Throne has 148 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Dark Throne ships an update fortnightly, Epic Dungeons every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
