# Idle Adventure vs Medieval

The clearest difference is ads: Idle Adventure at none against Medieval's shown. Idle Adventure also leads on ratings volume (96 vs 1). Medieval's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Idle Adventure sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Medieval sells 3 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 — 4.9 for Idle Adventure against 5.0 for Medieval. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Idle Adventure has 96 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
