# Simple Match 3 vs Prime Flow

The clearest difference is rating: Simple Match 3 at 4.8 against Prime Flow's 4.0. Simple Match 3 also leads on ratings volume (247 vs 1) and chart position (#72 vs unranked). Prime Flow's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (100% vs 90%). On ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Simple Match 3 costs $1.99 and Prime Flow $0.99 up front. Simple Match 3 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Prime Flow asks for nothing beyond the download.

Simple Match 3 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simple Match 3 has 247 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Simple Match 3's written reviews are positive against 100% of Prime Flow's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
