# Dominion vs Pazak

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Dominion at 5.1K against Pazak's 11. Dominion also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 17.0). Pazak's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 68%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dominion sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Pazak sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Dominion against 4.7 for Pazak.
