# Linepoly vs The Six Degrees

The clearest difference is review sentiment: The Six Degrees at 100% against Linepoly's 54%. The Six Degrees also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and ads (none vs shown). Linepoly's advantage is ratings volume (237 vs 31) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Linepoly sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and The Six Degrees sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $5.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

The Six Degrees holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Linepoly has 237 ratings behind it against 31, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 54% of Linepoly's written reviews are positive against 100% of The Six Degrees's.

Linepoly ships an update fortnightly, The Six Degrees every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
