# Line Arcade vs Ball Connect

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Line Arcade at 75% against Ball Connect's 30%. Line Arcade also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1). Ball Connect's advantage is ratings volume (4.8K vs 20) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ball Connect sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Line Arcade asks for nothing beyond the download.

Ball Connect holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ball Connect has 4.8K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Line Arcade's written reviews are positive against 30% of Ball Connect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Line Arcade ships an update every 2 months, Ball Connect every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 9, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
