# Sword Melter vs Mask Evolution 3D

Sword Melter and Mask Evolution 3D both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 75% of Mask Evolution 3D's written reviews are positive against 48% of Sword Melter's. Mask Evolution 3D also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Sword Melter's advantage is chart position (#133 vs unranked) and ratings volume (63K vs 8.7K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sword Melter sells 12 one-off in-app purchases and Mask Evolution 3D sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sword Melter has 63K ratings behind it against 8.7K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
