Do or Dice
Read full descriptionHide full description
This game of dice is only for the ice cold gamblers. You get to decide whether you quit and join the high score list, or whether you want to continue in order to improve your high score... risking everything. You start with six dice, and if you have thrown a '1' or a '5', you can tab that to select it. For every '1' that you select, you will get 100 points. For a single '5' you will get 50 points, but if you select two fives in the same throw, you will be rewarded with 500 points. You can also select doubles, in order to score more points. Selecting two threes for example in one throw will give you 300 points. Two sixes raise you 600 points! And as a special bonus, if you throw a solid straight of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 in one throw, you will get a solid 1000 points at once! After every throw the selected dice are secured, and will not join the next throw unless you have six dice secured, in which case all dice will join the next throw. But beware. If you keep on playing, you might end up with a throw that contains no dice te select. Then your game will be over, and all your points will be lost. The only way to enter the high score list is to stop at the right time, before you get stuck.
Five Squares

Five Squares. Keep them apart. Five Squares is a one-thumb arcade survival game. Colored squares with googly eyes bounce around a neon arena, and if any two collide, your run is over. That's the whole rule. Keeping it gets harder every minute.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Do or Dice at none against Five Squares's 1. Do or Dice also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
