Step into Teyvat, a vast world teeming with life and flowing with elemental energy. You and your sibling arrived here from another world. Separated by an unknown god, stripped of your powers, and cast into a deep slumber, you now awake to a world very different from when you first arrived. Thus begins your journey across Teyvat to seek answers from The Seven — the gods of each element. Along the way, prepare to explore every inch of this wondrous world, join forces with a diverse range of characters, and unravel the countless mysteries that Teyvat holds... MASSIVE OPEN WORLD Climb any mountain, swim across any river, and glide over the world below, taking in the jaw-dropping scenery each step of the way. And if you stop to investigate a wandering Seelie or strange mechanism, who knows what you might discover? ELEMENTAL COMBAT SYSTEM Harness the seven elements to unleash elemental reactions. Anemo, Electro, Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, Dendro, and Geo interact in all sorts of ways, and Vision wielders have the power to turn this to their advantage. Will you vaporize Hydro with Pyro, electro-charge it with Electro, or freeze it with Cryo? Your mastery of the elements will give you the upper hand in battle and exploration. BEAUTIFUL VISUALS Feast your eyes on the world around you, with a stunning art style, real-time rendering, and finely tuned character animations delivering you a truly immersive visual experience. Lighting and weather all change naturally over time, bringing every detail of this world to life. SOOTHING SOUNDTRACK Let the beautiful sounds of Teyvat draw you in as you explore the expansive world around you. Performed by the world's top orchestras such as London Philharmonic Orchestra and Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, the soundtrack changes seamlessly with the time and gameplay to match the mood. BUILD YOUR DREAM TEAM Team up with a diverse cast of characters in Teyvat, each with their own unique personalities, stories, and abilities. Discover your favorite party combinations and level up your characters to help you conquer even the most daunting of enemies and domains. JOURNEY WITH FRIENDS Team up with friends across various platforms to trigger more elemental action, tackle tricky boss fights, and conquer challenging domains together to reap rich rewards. As you stand atop the peaks of Jueyun Karst and take in the rolling clouds and vast terrain stretching out before you, you may wish to stay in Teyvat a little longer... But until you are reunited with your lost sibling, how can you rest? Go forth, Traveler, and begin your adventure! WANDER THE THOUSAND STARS, SHAPE MYRIADS OF WONDERLANDS Enter Miliastra Wonderland — a dreamlike realm of adventure, creation, and socializing. Customize your Manekins, meet friends in the Lobby, tackle challenges in various stages, or craft your own unique worlds in the Miliastra Sandbox!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Infinity Nikki at none against Genshin Impact · Cloud's shown. Infinity Nikki also leads on rating (3.9 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (13K vs 1.5K). Genshin Impact · Cloud's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Genshin Impact · Cloud sells 14 one-off in-app purchases and Infinity Nikki sells 38 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Infinity Nikki holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Infinity Nikki has 13K ratings behind it against 1.5K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Genshin Impact · Cloud's written reviews are positive against 51% of Infinity Nikki's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Genshin Impact · Cloud ships an update every 6 weeks, Infinity Nikki every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
