# Checkers ‣ vs Checkers

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Checkers ‣ at 3.5K against Checkers's 3. Checkers's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Checkers ‣ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Checkers sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Checkers holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Checkers ‣ has 3.5K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
