# Dead End HD vs Touch Drift

The clearest difference is rating: Touch Drift at 4.8 against Dead End HD's 3.6. Touch Drift also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 68%) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months). Dead End HD's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dead End HD sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Touch Drift sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Touch Drift holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Touch Drift has 91 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 68% of Dead End HD's written reviews are positive against 100% of Touch Drift's.
