# Craft World Builder vs Post Apo Tycoon

Craft World Builder and Post Apo Tycoon both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 88% of Post Apo Tycoon's written reviews are positive against 55% of Craft World Builder's. Post Apo Tycoon also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 969) and chart position (#166 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Craft World Builder sells 21 one-off in-app purchases and Post Apo Tycoon sells 123 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Craft World Builder against 4.7 for Post Apo Tycoon. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Post Apo Tycoon has 11K ratings behind it against 969, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 55% of Craft World Builder's written reviews are positive against 88% of Post Apo Tycoon's.
