# Tap Escape vs Bead Tower

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tap Escape at 100% against Bead Tower's 11%. Tap Escape also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 18) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). Bead Tower's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bead Tower sells 18 one-off in-app purchases. Tap Escape asks for nothing beyond the download.

Bead Tower holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bead Tower has 2.1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Tap Escape's written reviews are positive against 11% of Bead Tower's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
