# Stack Attack!! vs Throw Master

The clearest difference is rating: Throw Master at 4.8 against Stack Attack!!'s 4.3. Stack Attack!!'s advantage is review sentiment (23% vs 11%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stack Attack!! sells 19 one-off in-app purchases and Throw Master sells 16 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Throw Master holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 399 and 138 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of Stack Attack!!'s written reviews are positive against 11% of Throw Master's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
