# Focus Quest vs Task Roulette

The clearest difference is ads: Task Roulette at none against Focus Quest's shown. Task Roulette also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 83%). Focus Quest's advantage is ratings volume (502 vs 2) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Focus Quest sells 32 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Task Roulette sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Focus Quest holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Focus Quest has 502 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Focus Quest's written reviews are positive against 100% of Task Roulette's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
