# Hungry Nemo vs Shark Attack

The clearest difference is rating: Shark Attack at 4.5 against Hungry Nemo's 3.9. Shark Attack also leads on ratings volume (10K vs 35) and review sentiment (54% vs 30%). Hungry Nemo's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hungry Nemo sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Shark Attack sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Shark Attack holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shark Attack has 10K ratings behind it against 35, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 30% of Hungry Nemo's written reviews are positive against 54% of Shark Attack's.
