# Trace vs Block Tower

The clearest difference is ads: Block Tower at none against Trace's shown. Trace's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Trace sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Block Tower sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
