# Castle Raid! vs Snake Crusher

The clearest difference is rating: Snake Crusher at 4.6 against Castle Raid!'s 4.4. Snake Crusher also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Castle Raid!'s advantage is ratings volume (80K vs 12K). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
