Veronica is dying in a back alley. Rewind one year: she is a con artist living off wealthy men, and the wrong man has just caught her. ToON Novels is interactive fiction where your choices shape the story — and where the characters remember what you chose. READ AND DECIDE Every scene puts a decision in your hands. Charm him, lie to him, or walk away. Your choices are tracked across three lines of reputation — sweet promises, shards of power, dropped masks — and they change how people treat you and where the plot goes. TALK TO THE CHARACTERS This is not a chatbot bolted onto a book. Once you have met someone in the story, you can open a private conversation with them. They remember the deal you took, the lie you told, and the way you looked at them across the room. Jim knows exactly how you answered him in his office. Zhao Lin remembers whether you were honest. FOR ALL YOUR MONEY Jim traffics in forged paintings. He catches Veronica running a con and offers her a choice: the police, or a job. Seduce Zhao Lin, a restorer whose signature can turn a fake into a masterpiece — and who cannot read his own feelings. There is a best friend who trades in secrets, a young painter with nothing to lose, and a plan that only works if nobody looks too closely. FREE No purchases, no subscriptions, no ads.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Lagerta at 4.5 against ToON Novels's 3.0. Lagerta also leads on ratings volume (275 vs 2). ToON Novels's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement 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
Both are free to download. Lagerta sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.79 per month. ToON Novels asks for nothing beyond the download.
Lagerta holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lagerta has 275 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of Lagerta's written reviews are positive against 50% of ToON Novels's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Lagerta ships an update every 2 weeks, ToON Novels every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
