# Eternal Evolution vs SOULS

The clearest difference is update cadence: Eternal Evolution at weekly against SOULS's monthly. SOULS's advantage is review sentiment (74% vs 54%) and ratings volume (13K vs 2.5K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Eternal Evolution sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and SOULS sells 12 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 Eternal Evolution against 4.6 for SOULS. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SOULS has 13K ratings behind it against 2.5K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 54% of Eternal Evolution's written reviews are positive against 74% of SOULS's.

Eternal Evolution ships an update weekly, SOULS monthly. Both last shipped on September 28, 2026.
