# Plague vs Medieval Dice

The clearest difference is price: Medieval Dice at Free against Plague's $0.99. Medieval Dice also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 5 months). Plague's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (35 vs 1). On in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Medieval Dice is free to download; Plague costs $0.99 up front. Plague sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Medieval Dice sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Medieval Dice holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Plague has 35 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Plague ships an update every 5 months, Medieval Dice every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
