# Ugh! vs Rage Swarm

The clearest difference is ads: Ugh! at none against Rage Swarm's shown. Ugh! also leads on review sentiment (83% vs 59%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Rage Swarm's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 21 months) and ratings volume (9.4K vs 67). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ugh! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Rage Swarm sells 19 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rage Swarm has 9.4K ratings behind it against 67, so its average is the more settled of the two.
