# Maya vs Hidden Objects

Maya and Hidden Objects both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 89% of Maya's written reviews are positive against 46% of Hidden Objects's. Maya also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Hidden Objects's advantage is ratings volume (282K vs 1.9K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Maya sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Hidden Objects sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Maya against 4.6 for Hidden Objects. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hidden Objects has 282K ratings behind it against 1.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 89% of Maya's written reviews are positive against 46% of Hidden Objects's.
