# Monster Evolution vs Panda Evolution Merge

The clearest difference is ads: Monster Evolution at none against Panda Evolution Merge's shown. Monster Evolution also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). Panda Evolution Merge's advantage is review sentiment (93% vs 60%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Monster Evolution sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Panda Evolution Merge sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Panda Evolution Merge holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Panda Evolution Merge has 1.3K ratings behind it against 156, so its average is the more settled of the two.
