# Evo Defense vs Dungeon Rush

The clearest difference is ads: Dungeon Rush at none against Evo Defense's shown. Dungeon Rush also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). Evo Defense's advantage is ratings volume (9.7K vs 420) and chart position (#59 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Evo Defense sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Dungeon Rush sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Evo Defense against 4.6 for Dungeon Rush. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Evo Defense has 9.7K ratings behind it against 420, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 40% of Evo Defense's written reviews are positive against 37% of Dungeon Rush's.

Evo Defense ships an update fortnightly, Dungeon Rush every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
