# Clue vs Irodoku

The clearest difference is price: Irodoku at Free against Clue's $4.99. Irodoku also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 27) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Clue's advantage is ratings volume (4K vs 3) and chart position (#17 vs unranked). On ads there is nothing between them.

Irodoku is free to download; Clue costs $4.99 up front. Clue sells 26 one-off in-app purchases. Irodoku asks for nothing beyond the download.

Irodoku holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clue has 4K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
