# Checkers Clash vs Silken Path

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Silken Path at 100% against Checkers Clash's 40%. Silken Path also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Checkers Clash's advantage is ratings volume (4.6K vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Checkers Clash sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Silken Path sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Silken Path holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Checkers Clash has 4.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of Checkers Clash's written reviews are positive against 100% of Silken Path's.
