# Cell to Singularity vs Roll

The clearest difference is ads: Roll at none against Cell to Singularity's shown. Roll also leads on update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Cell to Singularity's advantage is ratings volume (23K vs 439) and rating (4.8 vs 4.6). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cell to Singularity sells 17 one-off in-app purchases and Roll sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cell to Singularity holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cell to Singularity has 23K ratings behind it against 439, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 82% of Cell to Singularity's written reviews are positive against 78% of Roll's.
