# Tiny Witch vs Arcane Arts Academy

The clearest difference is rating: Arcane Arts Academy at 4.8 against Tiny Witch's 4.6. Arcane Arts Academy also leads on ratings volume (1.4K vs 72). Tiny Witch's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 58%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tiny Witch sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Arcane Arts Academy sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Arcane Arts Academy holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Arcane Arts Academy has 1.4K ratings behind it against 72, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Tiny Witch's written reviews are positive against 58% of Arcane Arts Academy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
