ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pako Highway holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pako Highway has 694 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Johnny Rocket's written reviews are positive against 74% of Pako Highway's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
