Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Warhammer Quest at Free against Hardboiled's $1.99. Warhammer Quest also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 30 months) and ratings volume (2.5K vs 46). Hardboiled's advantage is review sentiment (74% vs 31%) and in-app purchases (none vs 14). On device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Warhammer Quest holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Warhammer Quest has 2.5K ratings behind it against 46, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Hardboiled's written reviews are positive against 31% of Warhammer Quest's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Hardboiled ships an update every 30 months, Warhammer Quest every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
