# Word Search Explorer® vs Word Fallout

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Word Fallout at none against Word Search Explorer®'s 11. Word Search Explorer®'s advantage is ratings volume (861K vs 2) and chart position (#8 vs unranked). On price, rating and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Word Search Explorer® sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Word Fallout asks for nothing beyond the download.
