# POOLS™ vs Angry Snake

The clearest difference is rating: Angry Snake at 5.0 against POOLS™'s 4.5. POOLS™'s advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. POOLS™ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Angry Snake sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Angry Snake holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: POOLS™ has 1.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

POOLS™ ships an update every 4 weeks, Angry Snake fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
