# Deva TD vs Heroes Crew

The clearest difference is rating: Heroes Crew at 4.6 against Deva TD's 1.0. Heroes Crew also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (98 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Deva TD sells 15 one-off in-app purchases and Heroes Crew sells 24 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Heroes Crew holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Heroes Crew has 98 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Deva TD's written reviews are positive against 69% of Heroes Crew's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Deva TD ships an update weekly, Heroes Crew every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
