# Void vs The Pinball Wizard

The clearest difference is price: The Pinball Wizard at Free against Void's $3.99. The Pinball Wizard also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 55). Void's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ads (none vs shown). On rating there is nothing between them.

The Pinball Wizard is free to download; Void costs $3.99 up front. The Pinball Wizard sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Void asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Void against 4.7 for The Pinball Wizard.
