# Starcrossed vs Bender Quest

The clearest difference is rating: Starcrossed at 4.8 against Bender Quest's 3.0. Starcrossed also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (4.7K vs 2). Bender Quest's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 17) and review sentiment (50% vs 29%). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Starcrossed sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Bender Quest asks for nothing beyond the download.

Starcrossed holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Starcrossed has 4.7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Starcrossed's written reviews are positive against 50% of Bender Quest's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Starcrossed ships an update every 5 days, Bender Quest every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
