# Bloons Supermonkey 2 vs Pixel Legends

The clearest difference is update cadence: Pixel Legends at weekly against Bloons Supermonkey 2's every 2 months. Pixel Legends also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 80%) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Bloons Supermonkey 2's advantage is ratings volume (6.5K vs 24). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bloons Supermonkey 2 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Pixel Legends sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
