# Cup Blitz vs Marble Soccer

Cup Blitz and Marble Soccer both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 80% of Marble Soccer's written reviews are positive against 35% of Cup Blitz's. Cup Blitz's advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 105). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
