# Fantasy vs PlotShort

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Fantasy at 65% against PlotShort's 0%. Fantasy also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (3.8 vs 3.3). PlotShort's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fantasy sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and PlotShort sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $59.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
