Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Epic Quests at 4.6 against Cryptids's 4.1. Epic Quests also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 30). Cryptids's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Epic Quests holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 12 and 21 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Cryptids's written reviews are positive against 89% of Epic Quests's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Cryptids ships an update every 3 weeks, Epic Quests every 8 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
