# Memory Games with Animals vs Memory Match

The clearest difference is ads: Memory Games with Animals at none against Memory Match's shown. Memory Games with Animals also leads on ratings volume (25K vs 34) and review sentiment (74% vs 50%). Memory Match's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 months) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Memory Games with Animals sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Memory Match sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Memory Match holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Memory Games with Animals has 25K ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Memory Games with Animals's written reviews are positive against 50% of Memory Match's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Memory Games with Animals ships an update every 4 months, Memory Match every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and August 10, 2026 respectively.
