# Doom Simulator vs AfterDoom

The clearest difference is review sentiment: AfterDoom at 100% against Doom Simulator's 0%. AfterDoom also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). Doom Simulator's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
