# Summoners War vs Demon Quest

The clearest difference is ads: Demon Quest at none against Summoners War's shown. Demon Quest also leads on review sentiment (76% vs 56%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). Summoners War's advantage is ratings volume (43K vs 12) and chart position (#45 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Summoners War sells 14 one-off in-app purchases and Demon Quest sells 6 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 — 4.2 for Summoners War against 4.2 for Demon Quest. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Summoners War has 43K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 56% of Summoners War's written reviews are positive against 76% of Demon Quest's.

Summoners War ships an update fortnightly, Demon Quest every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
