The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hidden Objects at 83% against Spirits Chronicles's 26%. Hidden Objects also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). Spirits Chronicles's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hidden Objects sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Spirits Chronicles sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Spirits Chronicles holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 364 and 507 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Hidden Objects's written reviews are positive against 26% of Spirits Chronicles's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Hidden Objects ships an update every 3 months, Spirits Chronicles every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
