# Superstar Soccer vs Knight Lancer

Superstar Soccer and Knight Lancer both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 83% of Knight Lancer's written reviews are positive against 53% of Superstar Soccer's. Knight Lancer also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 207). Superstar Soccer's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Superstar Soccer sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Knight Lancer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Superstar Soccer against 4.7 for Knight Lancer. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Knight Lancer has 11K ratings behind it against 207, so its average is the more settled of the two.
