DUAL NOW
Read full descriptionHide full description
DUAL is a fast, physics-y space-combat arena for two — built to play with someone in the room, not a stranger online. Pick a mode, pick how you're playing, and go. SEVEN WAYS TO DUEL Battle (classic deathmatch), Squash (knock the orb past your rival), King of the Hill, Juggernaut (one ship is crowned and everyone else hunts them), Gun Game (every kill upgrades your weapon), and two co-op modes — Boss Fight and endless Survival — for playing together instead of against. HOWEVER YOU'RE SET UP Solo against AI with adjustable difficulty and ship count. Pass-and-play on one device, split into top and bottom halves. Host or join a match over local Wi-Fi with a nearby friend — no internet required. Or go full arcade cabinet: put the arena on a TV over AirPlay and hand out phones as controllers. TILT TO STEER Optional tilt controls calibrate to however you're actually holding the phone when the match starts. MAKE YOUR SHIP YOURS Every color and ship shape is unlocked from the start — name your ship, pick a look, and it carries across every mode. NO ACCOUNT, NO ADS, NO TRACKING Nothing is collected, nothing is uploaded, and there's nothing to sign into. Wi-Fi matches connect directly, device to device.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: DUAL NOW at none against War Dragons's 10. DUAL NOW also leads on ads (none vs shown). War Dragons's advantage is chart position (#122 vs unranked) and device support (4 vs 2). On price there is nothing between them.
