Guessing Game for SharePlay holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.1.

Written reviews complicate that: 27% of Guessing Game for SharePlay's written reviews are positive against 33% of Pictionary Game's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
