# Wacky Run vs Mecha Run!

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mecha Run! at 88% against Wacky Run's 41%. Mecha Run! also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1). Wacky Run's advantage is ratings volume (61K vs 134) and rating (4.6 vs 4.2). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Wacky Run sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Mecha Run! asks for nothing beyond the download.

Wacky Run holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wacky Run has 61K ratings behind it against 134, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of Wacky Run's written reviews are positive against 88% of Mecha Run!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
