# Spring Chicken vs Mega Obby

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Spring Chicken at 100% against Mega Obby's 30%. Spring Chicken also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Mega Obby's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (4.6K vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
