# NRTM vs Into the Breach

The clearest difference is rating: Into the Breach at 4.8 against NRTM's 4.4. Into the Breach also leads on ratings volume (5.9K vs 7). NRTM's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 84%) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 17.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NRTM sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Into the Breach sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Into the Breach holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Into the Breach has 5.9K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of NRTM's written reviews are positive against 84% of Into the Breach's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

NRTM ships an update every 6 weeks, Into the Breach every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
