# Dominion vs Go First!

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Go First! at none against Dominion's 17. Go First! also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 68%). Dominion's advantage is ratings volume (4.7K vs 3) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dominion sells 17 one-off in-app purchases. Go First! asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Dominion against 5.0 for Go First!.
