# Reigns vs Lapse 2

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Reigns at 7.6K against Lapse 2's 75. Reigns also leads on chart position (#8 vs unranked). Lapse 2's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and price ($0.99 vs $2.99). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Reigns costs $2.99 and Lapse 2 $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Lapse 2 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reigns has 7.6K ratings behind it against 75, so its average is the more settled of the two.
