# Alchemy Dungeon vs Pachoink! CE

CE also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 69%) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Alchemy Dungeon's advantage is ratings volume (42 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Alchemy Dungeon sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Pachoink! CE sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
