# Memory Matches 2 vs Match Tile 3D

Memory Matches 2 and Match Tile 3D both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 72% of Memory Matches 2's written reviews are positive against 18% of Match Tile 3D's. Match Tile 3D's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (95K vs 9.4K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Memory Matches 2 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Match Tile 3D sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. 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 Memory Matches 2 against 4.8 for Match Tile 3D. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Match Tile 3D has 95K ratings behind it against 9.4K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 72% of Memory Matches 2's written reviews are positive against 18% of Match Tile 3D's.
