# Match Tile 3D vs Connect Master

Match Tile 3D and Connect Master both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 61% of Connect Master's written reviews are positive against 18% of Match Tile 3D's. Match Tile 3D's advantage is ratings volume (95K vs 3.5K) and chart position (#133 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Match Tile 3D sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Connect Master sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Match Tile 3D has 95K ratings behind it against 3.5K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
