# Head Battle vs MagicCraft

The clearest difference is rating: Head Battle at 4.9 against MagicCraft's 4.3. Head Battle also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). MagicCraft's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 50%) and ratings volume (49 vs 8). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MagicCraft sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Head Battle asks for nothing beyond the download.

Head Battle holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MagicCraft has 49 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Head Battle's written reviews are positive against 75% of MagicCraft's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Head Battle ships an update monthly, MagicCraft every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
