# VRChat vs Wardrive Go

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Wardrive Go at 100% against VRChat's 46%. Wardrive Go also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4). VRChat's advantage is ratings volume (3.3K vs 9) and chart position (#83 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VRChat sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Wardrive Go sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Wardrive Go holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VRChat has 3.3K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 46% of VRChat's written reviews are positive against 100% of Wardrive Go's.
