# 바둑2.0 vs BadukPop Go

The clearest difference is review sentiment: BadukPop Go at 77% against 바둑2.0's 13%. BadukPop Go also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.5) and ads (none vs shown). 바둑2.0's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 바둑2.0 sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and BadukPop Go sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BadukPop Go holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BadukPop Go has 6.8K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two.
