# Ultimate Hangman Go vs Hangman∙

The clearest difference is ads: Hangman∙ at none against Ultimate Hangman Go's shown. Hangman∙ also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 234). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ultimate Hangman Go sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Hangman∙ sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Hangman∙ holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hangman∙ has 1.5K ratings behind it against 234, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of Ultimate Hangman Go's written reviews are positive against 89% of Hangman∙'s.

Ultimate Hangman Go ships an update every 4 months, Hangman∙ every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
