# Dance Break vs Dance Ninja

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Dance Break at 100% against Dance Ninja's 42%. Dance Break also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Dance Ninja's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (649 vs 7).
