# Riptide GP2 vs Death Race

The clearest difference is ads: Death Race at none against Riptide GP2's shown. Death Race also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). Riptide GP2's advantage is ratings volume (7K vs 6) and chart position (#206 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Riptide GP2 sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Death Race sells 10 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 — 4.8 for Riptide GP2 against 4.8 for Death Race. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Riptide GP2 has 7K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two.
