# Slime Hole vs Cake Master

Slime Hole and Cake Master both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Slime Hole's written reviews are positive against 27% of Cake Master's. Cake Master's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (501 vs 40). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Slime Hole sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Cake Master sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
