# Ruzzle vs Word Vision

Ruzzle and Word Vision both sit at 4.2 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Word Vision's written reviews are positive against 43% of Ruzzle's. Word Vision also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Ruzzle's advantage is ratings volume (7.9K vs 7) and chart position (#65 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ruzzle sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Word Vision sells 8 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 — 4.2 for Ruzzle against 4.3 for Word Vision. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ruzzle has 7.9K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 43% of Ruzzle's written reviews are positive against 100% of Word Vision's.
