# Predecessor vs DEADGRID

The clearest difference is rating: DEADGRID at 4.8 against Predecessor's 3.0. DEADGRID also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (53 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Predecessor sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and DEADGRID sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

DEADGRID holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DEADGRID has 53 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Predecessor ships an update every 4 days, DEADGRID every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
