# OctoHits vs Magazine Stack Rush

The clearest difference is rating: OctoHits at 4.1 against Magazine Stack Rush's 3.0. OctoHits also leads on ratings volume (875 vs 14) and review sentiment (19% vs 11%). Magazine Stack Rush's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (12.5 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
