# Bubble Wars vs Wu Kong!

The clearest difference is ads: Wu Kong! at none against Bubble Wars's shown. Wu Kong! also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (67% vs 47%). Bubble Wars's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (559 vs 13). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Bubble Wars holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bubble Wars has 559 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of Bubble Wars's written reviews are positive against 67% of Wu Kong!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
