# Lost Realm vs Crystal Legends

The clearest difference is rating: Lost Realm at 4.8 against Crystal Legends's 4.4. Crystal Legends's advantage is review sentiment (64% vs 50%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lost Realm sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Crystal Legends sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Lost Realm holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 114 and 109 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Lost Realm's written reviews are positive against 64% of Crystal Legends's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Lost Realm ships an update every 6 weeks, Crystal Legends every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
