# Snail Bob 2 vs B

The clearest difference is rating: Snail Bob 2 at 4.6 against B's 4.0. Snail Bob 2 also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 50%) and ratings volume (13K vs 1.1K). B's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Snail Bob 2 sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and B sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Snail Bob 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Snail Bob 2 has 13K ratings behind it against 1.1K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
