# Mudd Masher vs Associate Words

The clearest difference is rating: Associate Words at 4.9 against Mudd Masher's 3.7. Associate Words also leads on ratings volume (6.2K vs 85). Mudd Masher's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (62% vs 46%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mudd Masher sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Associate Words sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Associate Words holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Associate Words has 6.2K ratings behind it against 85, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Mudd Masher's written reviews are positive against 46% of Associate Words's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
