# CLZ Games vs Game Tracker

The clearest difference is monetization model: Game Tracker at free with in-app purchases against CLZ Games's subscription. CLZ Games's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 122) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CLZ Games sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Game Tracker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for CLZ Games against 4.7 for Game Tracker. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CLZ Games has 1.6K ratings behind it against 122, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 74% of CLZ Games's written reviews are positive against 68% of Game Tracker's.

CLZ Games ships an update weekly, Game Tracker fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
