# Wolf Online vs Dune

The clearest difference is price: Wolf Online at Free against Dune's $10.99. Wolf Online also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 days) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Dune's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 3.4) and ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Wolf Online is free to download; Dune costs $10.99 up front. Wolf Online sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Dune sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Dune holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dune has 4.7K ratings behind it against 174, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 49% of Wolf Online's written reviews are positive against 79% of Dune's.

Wolf Online ships an update every 3 days, Dune every 6 days. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
