# SickleBuddy vs Shadow's Edge

The clearest difference is rating: Shadow's Edge at 4.6 against SickleBuddy's 3.0. Shadow's Edge also leads on ratings volume (33 vs 2). SickleBuddy's advantage is iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Shadow's Edge holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shadow's Edge has 33 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of SickleBuddy's written reviews are positive against 94% of Shadow's Edge's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
