# Othello Quest vs REVERSI ZERO

The clearest difference is review sentiment: REVERSI ZERO at 87% against Othello Quest's 55%. Othello Quest's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (232 vs 75). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Othello Quest sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month and REVERSI ZERO sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Othello Quest holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 232 and 75 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Othello Quest's written reviews are positive against 87% of REVERSI ZERO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Othello Quest ships an update every 2 weeks, REVERSI ZERO monthly. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
