# Scratch Brigade vs seeker2

The clearest difference is ads: Scratch Brigade at none against seeker2's shown. Scratch Brigade also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 70%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). seeker2's advantage is ratings volume (95 vs 10). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Scratch Brigade sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and seeker2 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
