# OverTake vs Ladder.io

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Ladder.io at 54% against OverTake's 7%. Ladder.io also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.6 vs 4.4). OverTake's advantage is ratings volume (20K vs 2.2K). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. OverTake sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.49 per 7 days and Ladder.io sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Ladder.io holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OverTake has 20K ratings behind it against 2.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 7% of OverTake's written reviews are positive against 54% of Ladder.io's.

OverTake ships an update every 5 weeks, Ladder.io fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
