# Cartoonacy vs Connections Game!

The clearest difference is rating: Connections Game! at 4.6 against Cartoonacy's 3.9. Connections Game! also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ratings volume (13K vs 14). Cartoonacy's advantage is review sentiment (68% vs 30%) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cartoonacy sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Connections Game! asks for nothing beyond the download.

Connections Game! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Connections Game! has 13K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Cartoonacy's written reviews are positive against 30% of Connections Game!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
