# Om Nom vs Ultimate Sackboy

The clearest difference is rating: Om Nom at 4.4 against Ultimate Sackboy's 3.5. Om Nom also leads on review sentiment (61% vs 36%) and ratings volume (4K vs 350). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Om Nom sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Ultimate Sackboy sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Om Nom holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Om Nom has 4K ratings behind it against 350, so its average is the more settled of the two.
