# Planet Evolution vs #1 Tap Game

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Planet Evolution at 30K against #1 Tap Game's 2. Planet Evolution also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5). #1 Tap Game's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 78%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Planet Evolution sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and #1 Tap Game sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Planet Evolution holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Planet Evolution has 30K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Planet Evolution's written reviews are positive against 100% of #1 Tap Game's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
