# ScribbleX vs MONOPOLY

The clearest difference is price: ScribbleX at Free against MONOPOLY's $4.99. ScribbleX also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 38%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.2). MONOPOLY's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (186K vs 6). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ScribbleX is free to download; MONOPOLY costs $4.99 up front. ScribbleX sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and MONOPOLY sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MONOPOLY holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MONOPOLY has 186K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of ScribbleX's written reviews are positive against 38% of MONOPOLY's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
