# Dicefolk vs Orbit Mission

The clearest difference is rating: Orbit Mission at 5.0 against Dicefolk's 4.3. Orbit Mission also leads on update cadence (daily vs fortnightly). Dicefolk's advantage is ratings volume (54 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dicefolk sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Orbit Mission sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Orbit Mission holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dicefolk has 54 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Dicefolk ships an update fortnightly, Orbit Mission daily. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
