# Chillquarium vs Fortune Mill

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Chillquarium at 79% against Fortune Mill's 34%. Chillquarium also leads on ratings volume (190 vs 1) and update cadence (daily vs every 6 days). Fortune Mill's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chillquarium sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Fortune Mill sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Fortune Mill holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chillquarium has 190 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Chillquarium's written reviews are positive against 34% of Fortune Mill's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Chillquarium ships an update daily, Fortune Mill every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
