# Ninja Attack! vs Shadow Trick

The clearest difference is rating: Ninja Attack! at 4.4 against Shadow Trick's 4.0. Ninja Attack! also leads on ratings volume (1.3K vs 32) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). Shadow Trick's advantage is review sentiment (70% vs 47%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ninja Attack! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Shadow Trick sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Ninja Attack! holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ninja Attack! has 1.3K ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of Ninja Attack!'s written reviews are positive against 70% of Shadow Trick's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
