# Dino Rush vs Pou

The clearest difference is chart position: Pou at #2 against Dino Rush's #81. Pou also leads on ratings volume (3.9K vs 406). Dino Rush's advantage is review sentiment (78% vs 68%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Dino Rush costs $1.99 and Pou $1.99 up front. Dino Rush sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Pou sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for Dino Rush against 4.4 for Pou. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pou has 3.9K ratings behind it against 406, so its average is the more settled of the two.
