# Princess*Solitaire vs Solitaire

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Princess*Solitaire at none against Solitaire's 7. Princess*Solitaire also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6). Solitaire's advantage is ratings volume (4.5K vs 177) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Solitaire sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Princess*Solitaire asks for nothing beyond the download.

Princess*Solitaire holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Solitaire has 4.5K ratings behind it against 177, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Princess*Solitaire's written reviews are positive against 78% of Solitaire's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Princess*Solitaire ships an update every 2 months, Solitaire every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
