# Dicero! vs Rift Riff

The clearest difference is rating: Dicero! at 4.9 against Rift Riff's 4.1. Dicero! also leads on ratings volume (22K vs 238) and chart position (#25 vs unranked). Rift Riff's advantage is review sentiment (72% vs 50%) and update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dicero! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Rift Riff sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Dicero! holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dicero! has 22K ratings behind it against 238, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Dicero!'s written reviews are positive against 72% of Rift Riff's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Dicero! ships an update fortnightly, Rift Riff every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
