# Coin Master vs Coin Chef

Coin Master and Coin Chef both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 76% of Coin Master's written reviews are positive against 46% of Coin Chef's. Coin Master also leads on ratings volume (1.4M vs 6.9K) and chart position (#3 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Coin Master sells 19 one-off in-app purchases and Coin Chef sells 35 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Coin Master against 4.9 for Coin Chef. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Coin Master has 1.4M ratings behind it against 6.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 76% of Coin Master's written reviews are positive against 46% of Coin Chef's.
