# Idle Space Company vs Sys Admin Sim

The clearest difference is price: Idle Space Company at Free against Sys Admin Sim's $0.99. Idle Space Company also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (5.1K vs 1). Sys Admin Sim's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 16) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.

Idle Space Company is free to download; Sys Admin Sim costs $0.99 up front. Idle Space Company sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. Sys Admin Sim asks for nothing beyond the download.

Idle Space Company holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Idle Space Company has 5.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of Idle Space Company's written reviews are positive against 100% of Sys Admin Sim's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
