# Cribbage Square vs Cribbage ++

The clearest difference is rating: Cribbage ++ at 4.3 against Cribbage Square's 3.0. Cribbage ++ also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ratings volume (221 vs 1). Cribbage Square's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 37%). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cribbage Square sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Cribbage ++ asks for nothing beyond the download.

Cribbage ++ holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cribbage ++ has 221 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Cribbage Square's written reviews are positive against 37% of Cribbage ++'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Cribbage Square ships an update every 2 months, Cribbage ++ every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
