# Cactus Evolution Clicker vs Dolphin Evolution

The clearest difference is ads: Cactus Evolution Clicker at none against Dolphin Evolution's shown. Cactus Evolution Clicker also leads on iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). Dolphin Evolution's advantage is ratings volume (807 vs 63). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cactus Evolution Clicker sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Dolphin Evolution sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Cactus Evolution Clicker against 4.7 for Dolphin Evolution. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dolphin Evolution has 807 ratings behind it against 63, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of Cactus Evolution Clicker's written reviews are positive against 93% of Dolphin Evolution's.
