Both are free to download. DISSIDIA DUELLUM FINAL FANTASY sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Paranoize sells 17 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Paranoize holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2.4K and 2.1K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of DISSIDIA DUELLUM FINAL FANTASY's written reviews are positive against 53% of Paranoize's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

DISSIDIA DUELLUM FINAL FANTASY ships an update fortnightly, Paranoize weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
