# Breakthrough! Visual Novel vs iPolyglot

The clearest difference is rating: iPolyglot at 4.7 against Breakthrough! Visual Novel's 3.7. iPolyglot also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (106 vs 3). Breakthrough! Visual Novel's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 79%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.5). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Breakthrough! Visual Novel sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and iPolyglot sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

iPolyglot holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iPolyglot has 106 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Breakthrough! Visual Novel's written reviews are positive against 79% of iPolyglot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
