# Combo Quest vs Re

The clearest difference is ads: Combo Quest at none against Re's shown. Combo Quest also leads on iOS requirement (5.1.1 vs 12.0). Re's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Combo Quest sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Re sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Re holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 468 and 505 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 61% of Combo Quest's written reviews are positive against 82% of Re's.

Combo Quest ships an update every 2 months, Re every 10 days. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
