Ludo lived in Piedmont, a small village at the foot of mount Massif. The mountain was a scary place upon which was erected castle Monfort, a relic from the past. Legends speak of an evil man who lived in the castle and had the ability to bring back people from the dead and control them. One day, an army of living dead kidnapped all villagers. All but one. Ludo escaped unnoticed napping in a stack of hay. He fell asleep after an exhausting knight-training session with sword and armor. Only to be awakened by the screams of the villagers being herded away to castle Monfort. Ludo is brave, resilient and resourceful. So starts his quest to free the villagers of Piedmont, to free his friends and family.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Ludo's Quest at Free against Monkey Flight 2's $1.99. Ludo's Quest also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 7 months). Monkey Flight 2's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 3.3) and ratings volume (36 vs 3). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Monkey Flight 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Monkey Flight 2 has 36 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Monkey Flight 2's written reviews are positive against 90% of Ludo's Quest's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Monkey Flight 2 ships an update every 7 months, Ludo's Quest every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
