# Riddle Master vs Brain Master!

The clearest difference is update cadence: Brain Master! at every 5 days against Riddle Master's monthly. Brain Master! also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and review sentiment (26% vs 14%). Riddle Master's advantage is ratings volume (89K vs 9.9K). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Riddle Master sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Brain Master! sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
