# SteppyKnight vs Vacuum Warrior

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SteppyKnight at none against Vacuum Warrior's 10. SteppyKnight also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 6 weeks). Vacuum Warrior's advantage is ratings volume (667 vs 10). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vacuum Warrior sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. SteppyKnight asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for SteppyKnight against 4.7 for Vacuum Warrior. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vacuum Warrior has 667 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of SteppyKnight's written reviews are positive against 80% of Vacuum Warrior's.
