# Spaceteam vs 500 Scoreboard

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Spaceteam at 3K against 500 Scoreboard's 35. Spaceteam also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 64%) and chart position (#206 vs unranked). 500 Scoreboard's advantage is iOS requirement (12.1 vs 15.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spaceteam sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and 500 Scoreboard sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Spaceteam against 4.5 for 500 Scoreboard. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spaceteam has 3K ratings behind it against 35, so its average is the more settled of the two.
