# GemLands vs Mr Greedy

The clearest difference is ads: GemLands at none against Mr Greedy's shown. Mr Greedy's advantage is ratings volume (284 vs 4) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GemLands sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Mr Greedy sells 9 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 — 5.0 for GemLands against 4.9 for Mr Greedy. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mr Greedy has 284 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

GemLands ships an update every 5 weeks, Mr Greedy fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
