# Chess vs Chess

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chess at none against Chess's 4. Chess also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Chess's advantage is ratings volume (39K vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 18.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chess sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Chess asks for nothing beyond the download.

Chess holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chess has 39K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
