# How it Works vs Gun Builder Simulator

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: How it Works at none against Gun Builder Simulator's 1. How it Works also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 68%). Gun Builder Simulator's advantage is ratings volume (329 vs 1) and rating (4.3 vs 4.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gun Builder Simulator sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. How it Works asks for nothing beyond the download.

Gun Builder Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gun Builder Simulator has 329 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of How it Works's written reviews are positive against 68% of Gun Builder Simulator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
