# Match Things vs Match 3D

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Match 3D at 85 against Match Things's 2. Match 3D also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). Match Things's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Match Things sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Match 3D sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Match Things holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Match 3D has 85 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Match Things ships an update every 3 weeks, Match 3D every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
