# Eatventure vs Pasta Machine

Eatventure and Pasta Machine both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 84% of Eatventure's written reviews are positive against 16% of Pasta Machine's. Eatventure also leads on chart position (#55 vs unranked) and ratings volume (80K vs 8.8K). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Eatventure sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Pasta Machine sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Eatventure holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Eatventure has 80K ratings behind it against 8.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 84% of Eatventure's written reviews are positive against 16% of Pasta Machine's.
