# GL Golf vs Disc Golf 3D

The clearest difference is rating: GL Golf at 4.0 against Disc Golf 3D's 3.3. GL Golf also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 37%) and ratings volume (105 vs 16). Disc Golf 3D's advantage is price ($1.99 vs $4.99). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

GL Golf costs $4.99 and Disc Golf 3D $1.99 up front. GL Golf sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Disc Golf 3D sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GL Golf holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GL Golf has 105 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two.
