# ARCANE RUSH vs Turtle Clash

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Turtle Clash at 83% against ARCANE RUSH's 46%. Turtle Clash also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10). ARCANE RUSH's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (3.1K vs 13). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ARCANE RUSH sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Turtle Clash asks for nothing beyond the download.

ARCANE RUSH holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ARCANE RUSH has 3.1K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of ARCANE RUSH's written reviews are positive against 83% of Turtle Clash's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
