# ELEMENTAL vs Made in Age!

ELEMENTAL and Made in Age! both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Made in Age!'s written reviews are positive against 61% of ELEMENTAL's. Made in Age! also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly). ELEMENTAL's advantage is ratings volume (438 vs 2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ELEMENTAL sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Made in Age! sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ELEMENTAL holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ELEMENTAL has 438 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of ELEMENTAL's written reviews are positive against 100% of Made in Age!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ELEMENTAL ships an update monthly, Made in Age! every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
