# Masquerade Dance vs Dance!

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Masquerade Dance at none against Dance!'s 10. Masquerade Dance also leads on ratings volume (243 vs 41).

Both are free to download. Dance! sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Masquerade Dance asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Masquerade Dance against 4.8 for Dance!.
