# Pile vs Coin Stack Puzzle

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pile at 100% against Coin Stack Puzzle's 29%. Pile also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 12) and ads (none vs shown). Coin Stack Puzzle's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (3K vs 6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Coin Stack Puzzle sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Pile asks for nothing beyond the download.

Coin Stack Puzzle holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Coin Stack Puzzle has 3K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Pile's written reviews are positive against 29% of Coin Stack Puzzle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
