# Dragon Eclipse vs The Dark Quarter

The clearest difference is rating: The Dark Quarter at 4.7 against Dragon Eclipse's 3.7. Dragon Eclipse's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 14%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

The Dark Quarter holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 6 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Dragon Eclipse's written reviews are positive against 14% of The Dark Quarter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
