# Tiny Racing vs New Star™ GP

The clearest difference is rating: New Star™ GP at 4.2 against Tiny Racing's 3.0. New Star™ GP also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (398 vs 2). Tiny Racing's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tiny Racing sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and New Star™ GP sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
