The clearest difference is rating: ARCANE RUSH at 4.7 against Wildfrost's 4.1. ARCANE RUSH also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and chart position (#185 vs unranked).

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. ARCANE RUSH sells 21 one-off in-app purchases and Wildfrost sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
ARCANE RUSH holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ARCANE RUSH has 3K ratings behind it against 507, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of ARCANE RUSH's written reviews are positive against 66% of Wildfrost's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
ARCANE RUSH ships an update weekly, Wildfrost monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
