# Solitaire vs Solitaire

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Solitaire at 80% against Solitaire's 33%. Solitaire also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.6) and ads (none vs shown). Solitaire's advantage is iOS requirement (12.5 vs 15.6). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Solitaire sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Solitaire sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Solitaire holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Solitaire has 2.5K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of Solitaire's written reviews are positive against 33% of Solitaire's.

Solitaire ships an update every 3 months, Solitaire every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
