# Clone Evolution vs Insect Life

The clearest difference is rating: Clone Evolution at 4.4 against Insect Life's 3.8. Clone Evolution also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 9).

Both are free to download. Clone Evolution sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Insect Life asks for nothing beyond the download.
