# Geometry Dash World vs Sqube Darkness

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Geometry Dash World at 80% against Sqube Darkness's 36%. Geometry Dash World also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 20) and chart position (#15 vs unranked). Sqube Darkness's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 12 months) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sqube Darkness sells 20 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Geometry Dash World asks for nothing beyond the download.

Sqube Darkness holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 70K and 32K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Geometry Dash World's written reviews are positive against 36% of Sqube Darkness's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
