# DomiNations vs Conqueror's Dynasty

The clearest difference is rating: DomiNations at 4.5 against Conqueror's Dynasty's 2.9. DomiNations also leads on ratings volume (39K vs 7) and chart position (#192 vs unranked). Conqueror's Dynasty's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DomiNations sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Conqueror's Dynasty sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

DomiNations holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DomiNations has 39K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 52% of DomiNations's written reviews are positive against 43% of Conqueror's Dynasty's.

DomiNations ships an update every 2 weeks, Conqueror's Dynasty every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
